Defensive fighting position : ウィキペディア英語版 | Defensive fighting position
A defensive fighting position (DFP) is a type of earthwork constructed in a military context, generally large enough to accommodate at least one person. == Terminology == It is known more commonly within United States Army slang as a "fighting position" or as a "ranger grave". It is known as a "fighting hole" in the United States Marine Corps, a "Gun-Pit" in Australian Army terminology, a "fighting pit" in the New Zealand Army and as a "slit trench" in British and Canadian military argot, or simply—but less accurately—as a "trench". During the American Civil War the term "rifle pit" was recognized by both U.S. Army and Confederate Army forces. A foxhole is one type of defensive position. In British terminology it equates to a range of terms including slit trench or fire trench (a trench deep enough for a man to stand in) and shell scrape (a shallow depression that affords protection in the prone position).
