Squads on Hide will still take peeks
I should have noticed this earlier, duh! This Russian squad is on Hide in thick woods, and if we monitor the status of individual men on the readout at bottom left, we see that the status of some of them changes from 'Hiding' to 'Spotting' every few seconds at random.
So in a typical 11-man squad like this on 'Hide', there'll always be about 3 men (white arrows) who'll keep raising their heads above the weeds to take a peek at the enemy to keep tabs on his whereabouts.
It also explains why squads laying on the floor on Hide in buildings can still spot the enemy as some men raise their heads to peep out the windows..:)
And it explains why Hide never gives total concealment, because heads keep popping up and the enemy will spot them sooner or later as he gets closer.
