During the night, there should not be bright lights inside the camp that illuminate the personnel.

Bright lights inside a camp at night would silhouette the personnel and make them easy targets for snipers or attackers observing from outside. Security lighting should typically be directed outwards or used strategically to illuminate approaches, not the interior space in a way that exposes occupants.

Securing an outpost involves creating defensive positions (firing trenches, weapon pits), establishing surveillance capabilities (binoculars, night vision), controlling access points, and implementing appropriate lighting discipline to enhance security and prevent detection or targeting by adversaries.
