Which two Cannoneers emplace the aiming posts during emplacement?

• A. Cannoneers 1 & 2
• B. Cannoneers 2 & 3
• C. Cannoneers 3 & 4
• D. Cannoneers 4 & 5

Answer: (B)

During emplacement you set up aiming references to establish the gun’s line of fire. Aiming posts act as reference points for aligning the weapon’s sights and ensuring the bearing is correct before firing. The two Cannoneers assigned to the sighting/aiming duties are the ones who place these posts, so the crew can accurately align the gun and verify elevation and azimuth. This division lets the rest of the team handle mounting, stabilization, and ammo preparation while the aiming references are correctly established.
