Umm, how about...

If it is really needed insofar as a game occurrence is needed, have 
the command element for that platoon/unit spend its firing action 
directing that group of elements to do their task. Its the LT of that 
platoon telling the PSG to take that tank and his APC back to meet up 
with the Recovery team and medics, then hoof it back when things are 
fixed time allowing.
