Clarification low walls

[darth]

German player spends an action to move up to a low wall and then goes prone. Is he now out of LOS to any enemy on the other side of the wall?
If so could the allies place an over watch on his location (2 actions +)

On the Germans next activation and if this prone model acquires 2 actions, could he stand up , fire , and go prone again?

and If the allies did have over watch up would the mods go
something like this
-1 for cover
-1 for over watch
+1 ambush
ect...

would you count the wall as hard cover or fortified?
thx in advance

They could set up overwatch which would then kick in at -1 cover, -1 overwatch etc.
If it is a typical dry stone or double brick wall it would be hard cover.

OR they could fire at the wall with speculative fire (which is what it is for) at -3 (hard cover still counts) and try and shake the figure or make him move back (suppressive fire usage).

He'd be at -3 speculative, -1 cover and -1 prone but still might pull one out the bag with a LMG/HMG with some group fire going as well etc
