Battle Buddy System

The Battle Buddy System is a safety and support strategy used in military and similar settings, where service members are paired with a partner—called a "battle buddy." The purpose is to ensure mutual accountability, enhance situational awareness, and provide immediate support in emergencies, whether during training, duty, or combat. Each person looks out for the other’s well-being, assists with tasks, and helps recognize signs of stress or danger. This system promotes safety, camaraderie, and resilience by fostering trust and shared responsibility between partners.
