In the DRAW-D framework, which action is defined as using aggressive tactics to move forward and gain ground such as anchor and flank by either direct or indirect attack?

• A. Defend
• B. Reinforce
• C. Attack
• D. Delay

Answer: (C)

In DRAW-D, moving forward with force and purpose is about taking the fight to the fire and creating ground through aggressive action. This means using decisive tactics to establish a base (anchor) and then push along the sides (the flank) of the fire, whether you strike directly along the edge or use an indirect approach to reach a more favorable position. The idea is to shorten the fuel contact and control the advancing fire by actively advancing your line. Anchoring gives you a solid, controllable starting point from which you can push, while attacking the flank prevents the fire from sweeping around your position and forcing you into less favorable terrain. This contrasts with defending, which focuses on holding or protecting a location without advancing; delaying, which buys time without advancing; and reinforcing, which is about bringing in additional resources rather than conducting an offensive push. So the action described is Attack.
