Examples of Fix and Flank
Individual
The boxer’s One-Two punch is usually an attempt to fix an opponent with a Jab followed by a Cross from another angle- the Flank.
Tactical
US Army battle drill 2a involves a standard response to direct small arms fire. When a squad takes fire, the fire team taking fire returns fire and aims to suppress the enemy. A successful suppression fixes the enemy enough for the second fire team to flank and fire at the enemy.
