I'm always fascinated by the details of the weapons and support weapons carried into battle by these formations. (I've handled some of them myself, but I've never fired anything bigger than a handgun!) Once again, I want to check a minor detail of how many were assigned to whom.
At the moment, we have the support company consisting of "two mortar platoons with six 3 inch mortars, and two Vickers machine gun platoons with eight guns". Does this mean that the mortar platoons each had six mortars, thus twelve altogether? Likewise, did the Vickers platoons each have eight guns, thus sixteen altogether? Or only six and eight total? I know that a Vickers was normally operated by a three man team, so either option could just about be possible. I just want to be 100% sure.

[edit ]Currently we have the operation "located in the area bordered by Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Wiltshire". Can I assume this means within those three counties, and not that the area of the operation had those counties as its borders? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:48, 1 September 2011 (UTC) Reply
