One of these factors is altitude that influences the military movements as well as acting personnel in the mountainous areas by altering the wind vector and the atmospheric pressure. The adaptation of military forces to high altitudes brings about the maximum physical output. Climbing high altitudes without previous readiness of operating personnel may be deadly.
