My friend who plays Blood Angels uses 3 bolters for hand-to-hand only.

The Space Crusade rules page 6 "Marine player's turn" say:
He may move and fire each miniature in a turn.

The Space Crusade rules page 14 "Hand-to-Hand combat" say:
Instead of firing, a miniature may attack using hand-to-hand combat.


Therefore there is no difference between fire and hand-to-hand.

That's why I think the 'Fire Twice' allows to hand-to-hand twice.
But in this case the "Close Assault!" order card would be useless in comparaison to "Fire!".
