Incoming fire has the right of way. No combat ready unit ever passed inspection. Things that must be together to work usually can't be shipped together. Radios will fail as soon as you need fire support desperately. Anything you do can get you shot, including doing nothing.
Tracers work both ways.
The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire. If you take more than your fair share of objectives, you will have more than your fair share of objectives to take. When both sides are convinced that they are about to lose, they are both right. Professional soldiers are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs. Murphy was a grunt.
