Titolo: OOB 8a armata britannica

Qualcuno sarebbe cosě gentile da postare l'OOB dell'8a armata
britannica attorno all'agosto del 1942 (tra la prima battaglia di el
Alamein e quella di Alam Halfa)?
Grazie mille
Antonio

Grazie Jaco, precisissimo come al solito....
Ti risulta che il Northumberland Fusiliers fosse un reggimento costituito
unicamente da mitraglieri?

LOL!
Buona questa! :-)

Sì; il 2° batt. (compagnie W, X e Z) all'epoca dell'OdB aveva in carico
circa 40 Vickers; la compagnia W del 4th batt. gestiva anche 12 pezzi da
6pdr nel 22nd armoured brigade group.
