C'mon, Darrell...a Troop Leader doesn't go to a"leaguer" for an "O" Gp... he goes to a "laager".

How this bastardization of the proper term, first used during the Boer War, escapes me.

One arranges oneself, in a defensive posture, in a laager. Note the spelling... comments, Hanno, Dirk, et al?

Mvg Jon
