[REF] FM23-85 Basic Field Manual 60mm Mortar, M2.

I thought I would start scanning the Field manual for the mortar. This first section gives you an idea of the roles of each squad member, the commands given when deploying and firing rounds from the mortar. The manuals original owner has overwritten the squad leader as a Sgt and not Corporal for some reason.

We should bring the 60 to Amhurst, give it a blast!
