I was discussing this issue with a senior NCO's and they have alluded to the return of the elements you're talking about ;D
I hope 1 VP also plans to designate one of its rifle platoons as the defacto pnr pl. That would ensure a mechanism to provide qualified supervision for all the new pnr (to develop and sustain the capability) & avoid skill fade that might come if guys just go back to thier old jobs.PPCLI Guy said:I heard that 1 VP is going to run a Basic Pnr crse during this PCF Cycle.
Mountie said:Just a quick note regarding the dispersement mortar topic. According to several TO&E's that I've seen, British mortar platoons are organized with three sections of two mortars rather than the Canadian TO&E or two groups of four mortars. This allows each section to operate in support of a rifle company. The British platoons have two mortar vehicles and a section command vehicle for fire direction.

Iterator said:But, for Canada, splitting the old infantry mortar platoon groups into sections would require either more NCOs or using Group Recce (survey) as Control Posts, or some other option.
If Combat Support Company is coming back, or parts of it, Assault Pioneer Platoon would probably be easier to revive than Mortar Platoon.
