It means to form ranks. Everyone in a unit lines up in straight lines and by unit sub-division. If it is a company, four platoons are formed, there are then four rows of soldiers, with 11 in each row. The platoon leader gives the command and the troops line up facing him.

like get in line, "fall in behind me."
i don't know what you mean by "how long they usually last." until they finish whatever they're doing, i suppose.
