I was thinking about tank fire/infantry safety WRT your personnel safety category. When doing live fire runs the grunts are taught to stay behind the X roadwheel when the tank is firing. For reenacting, maybe turn that around. The reenacters must be taught to stay in front of the X roadwheel so the driver and CC can see them and understand their intentions. (Think about never walking behind a horse, and stay out of spitting range of any llamas ....)
