Playing France Cobra and I have several of these units with a cavalry symbol no less showing in the OB as FA Observers. How am I supposed to use them?

They are good recce unit. And good recce in first round of combat gives bonus of 30% in attack I think. But only in first round. Maybe use minimize losses setting for them. Bonus is only for them I think.

edit: my fault, better consult manual first:
All unit Strengths are increased by the unit�s
Reconnaissance Capability on the first round of
combat. Reconnaissance Capability has no effect
on subsequent Rounds.
Example: If a unit has an Anti-Personnel
Strength of 15 and a Reconnaissance Capability of
30%, its effective Anti-Personnel Strength on the
first round of combat would be 19.
