Hi All,
I have a couple questions about armoured units in Afg. First, some background on me:My name is Darcy Grossinger and I am chair of Br#254 Royal Canadian Legion's Support Our Troops Committee in Whitehorse. What we do is, we "adopt" a platoon of Can soldiers in Afg and send them care packages. We also have made a $500 donation to the "Sapper Mike McTeague Wounded Warriors Fund". We are on our third adopted platoon right now. All have been Infantry Pl's so far. Some Legion members have asked me to look into possibly adopting a Tank Troop or Squadron for next time to change things up a bit. I do have a few questions. How many pers in a Tp in Afg now? Sqn? How about an Armd Recce Tp, Sqn? Do the tank crews or Recce dets spend much time in KAF? How often do they live on IMP's? Will they be spending most of their time in FOB's or on op? What are the amenities in a FOB? I want the pkg's to go to the troops that need it the most.
If you have any OPSEC concerns and do not want to post, please PM me. Thank You
