| has gloss | dan: En observationspost er et midlertidigt eller fast sted, hvorfra forsvarende soldater kan holde udkig ("observere") efter fjendtlige enheder og rapportere dette videre for at advare egne styrker eller dirigere artilleriild. Da posten både kan være midlertidig og permanent, kan observationen foregå fra såvel tårne som biler, ligesom der kan anvendes både kikkerter og radarer til formålet. |
