A laager, lager, leaguer or laer (Afrikaans, from Dutch leger (camp); pronounced or ), is a defensive formation of wagons or motor vehicles. The vehicles in question are drawn up into a circle or square, while a camp is made in the interior of the circle.In modern armoured warfare, a laager is a hasty defensive formation of tanks or other armoured vehicles, used for quick resupply or refuelling. During wartime a laager is rather vulnerable to attack, especially from the air, so it is only maintained for a short period, in a relatively safe location.
