I haven't seen what the capability requirement is for the IFV for dismounts. That being said the KF41 version of the Lynx being trialed in phase 3 has seating for 8 dismounts and 3 crew vs 6 and 3 for the smaller KF31. Either way it will mean a change in org.

I'm still seeing pics of 70 man Rifle Companies, fitted for but not with 3 rifle platoons. Fitted for, but not with 4 Rifle Companies etc...

We were looking at that pic, or another one in the same series and were wondering who lent the sniper a helmet and who showed him how to put it on?

Different times to the old days.

July 6, 2021. Exercise Gauntlet Strike was the culminating activity of the armour Regimental Officer Basic Course in tanks, cavalry, artillery, engineers and the Mechanised Regimental Officer Course for infantry officers.

According to Colonel David McCammon, Commandant of the Combined Arms Training Centre at Puckapunyal, the courses qualified Army’s latest cohort of combat arms lieutenants to confidently command their soldiers.

Given its a sniper he probably stole it not having a clue what it was but decided he needed it anyway. I am guessing the Bn Padre would have been who got him to wear it correctly after watching him walk around with it on backwards and taking pity on him.
