Snipers are also utilized in support roles. These support roles can be an over-watch position or a blocking action. When a sniper is in an over-watch position, he sets himself up in a concealed place that gives him a clear view of the battlefield.
midnight, just like the sun is at it's highest point at noon. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Answer #2: The time of day at which the mooâ¦n is highest in the sky depends on its phase. Only the Full Moon is highest at midnight. -- The new moon is close to the sun, so is highest at noon. -- The first quarter moon is 1/4 of the sky behind the sun, so is highest at sunset. -- The full moon is opposite the sun, so is highest at midnight. -- The last quarter moon is 3/4 of the sky behind the sun, so is highest at sunrise.
Perigee (when the moon is closest to earth) can occur at any phase of the synodic cycle (Kelly et al. 1990: 989). Higher tides do occur at new and full moons, but not because the moon's gravitational pull is stronger at those times.Rather, the tides are higher then because the sun, earth, and moon are in a line and the tidal force of the sun joins that of the moon at those times to produce higher tides (ibid.: 989).erigee (when the moon is closest to earth) can occur at any phase of the synodic cycle (Kelly et al. 1990: 989).
