Admin Platoon - Active Edge questions.

[D-n-A]

A buddy of mine who has a list of who's doing what on the ex told me that I've been assigned to the Admin Platoon, why I dunno, I'm a cook not a clerk.

Anyways, I was wondering what the admin platoon would be doing, cause all I can think of is paperwork  :-\

admin coy / pl is more then just clerks it normally comprises  maint, tpt, rq, hq ,cq, and the cooks  :threat:    live and learn

Axe,be carefull he may pee in your soup or coffee one day.
He is a cook after all.

The Admin Coy has 8 main functions in integral support of the rest of the Bn. 

- Command and Control of Admin (Coy HQ)
- Logistics (QM / Rations)
- Transport (incl POL) 
- Maint
- Medical
- Pers Svcs
- Fin Svcs
- Padre

For the Admin Pl delete Pers Svcs, Fin Svcs and Padre. 

Cheers,

MC

Doesn't the Svc Bn have admin platoons?

Doesn't the Svc Bn have admin platoons?

Actually, the Svc Bn should have Admin Coy to support the Svc Bn, just like an infantry, armoured or artillery unit.

Thanks for the info.

As for peeing/spitting in food and drink.. we(cooks) would never do that...
