#1 No, no, no. You must shout "halt" three times before you fire. So it is "HaltHaltHal[BANG!]t"

#2 Rambler, the Air Force taught us to shout "HALT" three times, then fire three times if they didn't stop. The first shot was supposed to kill the individual, the other two were designed to attract the attention of the body-recovery truck. In real life, it's "halt,halt,halt[bang][bang][bang]. They also taught us NOT to miss, because missing got you an a$$-chewing PLUS extra time at the guardpost. It appears that same lesson is being taught to the Iraqis and the Afghanis - most encounters result in bad guys being shot.
