Frankie had asked me about convoy ops (prior to the convoy threat) about some of the most important planning factors. I list this to start with:

Radio contact is VITAL. Little models w/12 mi range or better work great and have recharge via 12v.
Have all drivers know plan and alt plan. Every vehicle equipped w/nav aids (map, compass, person w/sense of direction).
Depending on movement, have rally points and plan for what to do for ambush.

It will depend on the vehicle makeup too.
Do you find this valuable?

I think it would be good for the greater minds here to put up some basic ideas for the make up of a small convoy and a large one. Give the rest of us some food for thought...
