Latest from the line

307 of the Enemy Fall Before the 43c

Friends of liberty, the returns are in. Between the 19th to the 25th of October, the soldiers of the 43c put 307 of the enemy in the dirt, and every man who stood in the line can take a share of the credit.

Top honours go to CSM. Mikey SpiderWebs of Alpha Company, with 89 to his name. The officers nodded in quiet approval, which, from them, is as good as a parade.

Hats off as well to SgtMaj. Doddsy (89), Sgt. STAR WARS (68), and L-Cpl. VpompV (16), who each did their duty and then some.

The tracker saw our colours on 5 fields this week, including 7.Fuss | Event 1, NACE | Event 1, and 38th x 43c | Friday Skirm Event.
