When adding infantry to stationary objects like mortar, the infantry shoot into the crew of the mortar

So adding  infantry to stuff like heavy MGs and mortars is really nice, however, the remainng infantry in the group are placed behind the weapon and fire into the mortar crew and kills them

Can you show a screenshot or video of the problem?

This comment appears to be referring to placing a rifle squad behind a gun position. First of all, gun positions have their own crew which is not visible in the editor, so placing troops behind a gun position is not needed. In addition, when enemy vehicles approach, troops take a knee and fire forward or at the enemy vehicle so it is not surprising that they hit the gun crew.
 

it would also be a good idea for the OP to check and make sure the troops and the gun position are the same faction. The default Neutral faction is still hostile to everyone like in GB.
 

The infantry squads are surprisingly accurate BTW, as they always seem to pepper my plane after a strafing run.
