For example, if you are on a recon in hilly territory and somebody
spots a target high on a hill you might say 11 o'clock high as a way
of getting everybody to focus on one specific area without being
exactly specific. It means slightly to your left and up.

There are variations on a theme in all this, but that's essentially
what it means.


In your example above I would have just gotten the patrol's attention
and mouthed "Gook". They would follow my eyes. It's simple, quiet,
lacking in sudden movement, and did I mention quiet. (You did say it
was a recon patrol didn't you. LOL)
