This is the norm for US Army Sniper teams as well. Don't misunderstand what I'm saying, but one guy is officially slotted as the spotter, the senior guy, and the shooter is the junior guy while he learns what to look for and what not. Once they get out there, it's like any operational team, people get tired, you take shifts, someone is on security, etc. etc.
