Punjabi

 Reinforcements for Syria/Lebanon

Some additional Punjabi for my Syria/Lebanon project

All figures by Early War Miniatures

A 10-fig rifle platoon


Bren Team

All together



Vickers team
Now I`m not sure if Indian battalions had Vickers platoons or whether they had separate Machine gun battalions like British formations at the time??

    Looks good to me.

    I wouldn't worry about the vickers- a 'proper' infantry unit would have scrounged up one from somewhere.

    Cheers,

    Pete.

      Cheers Pete, as it happens David Beatty over on FB says Indian battalions did have support platoons with Vickers, so we`re all good.

    More good work Richard. could probably use these for Iraq 1941 and also earlier Iraq 1920 (excluding Bren team of course as still using Lewis gun then). Carl
