Which strong point type covers the best sectors of fire along an avenue that isn't the primary?

• A. Primary
• B. Alternate
• C. Supplementary
• D. Subsequent

Answer: (C)

In a defensive setup, the strongest, most effective fire is directed along the main avenue of approach—the primary sector. When you need to cover routes that are not the main one, you place supplementary sectors. These provide the best possible fields of fire on secondary avenues or flanks, extending protection beyond the main path and ensuring threats arriving from other directions can be engaged. So, supplementary fits because it designates additional coverage on non-primary avenues, whereas the primary remains the optimally placed fire along the main route and alternate would be the backup along that same main route.
