You talk of two infantry sections, who is in what section, does it depend on who turns up for a display, I used to be in No2 contaburnium that Roman equivelant of section. there would have to be a good mix of young and older persons.
There could be healthy competition, between sections, what do you think.

I'm all for a bit of healthy competition and fun, BUT I don't lilke any "them-and-us" mentality. Besides, don't forget Bob's HQ Section.
It will be good for operational duties though - No1 Section out on patrol while No2 section mans the trenches (H.Q. will be making the tea - obviously!).
I guess it will vary from event to event depending on the attendance though Ian.

Yes I take your point, you don't want them & us, I would like to volunteer for the HQ Section, I suppose the chat about 1&2 is PR talk, how many sections in a platoon now thats athought.

3 x 10 man sections 2 x 6 man H.Q. section 1 x Subaltern. How do we stand in comparison to this mate ?

We need 10 more for a full platoon - not including new potential recruits.

Ian mate, it will never be them and us. It will always be TOMMY ATKINS. I do think it would be a laugh to have some rivalry and banter though. It's what would have happened!

Agreed mate, a bit of extra authenticity "Oi Dan, bugger off back to No1 section to scrounge your f*gs"........

Well I'll be in which ever section that will have me!
It would mean at the bigger events one section holds the fort while the other gets to have a look round, instead of leaving Chris's Dad on his own.

I was wondering this to mate, do we have a break down of who's in what section or will that be decided at Hus Bos III?

It will all depend on the turnout gents, but Chris & Tiny have no1 Section, Oll & I have no2.
