DescriptionParados function in defilading an fortification from an enemy in a commanding position.jpg
English: The picture schematically represents enemies threatening a fortification. One is at such a height that the fortification protects the occupants, but a parados of suitable height is necessary to defilade the occupants against fire from a more commanding position.
The drawing is based on source in a mid-19th century manual of the British Army.[1]
