Shouldn't it be Manhattan first, and THEN Berlin?

This doesn't sound like a guy that is about to offer a draw.

Shouldn't it be Manhattan first, and THEN Berlin?

They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now I'm coming to reward them
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

Oh, you clever dog!  Let's see who gets this joke
 

I saw this unconfirmed footage of  Russian column retreating from Kherson toward Crimea, a wargamer friend of mine living in Kherson confirmed that there has been a lot of vehicles moving East along the highway as well as distant explosions near the highway. The first units pulling out according to him was a rocket artillery unit. 

He also heard the Ukraininan attack on the airport, so things seems to be moving here.

While working on a spreadsheet over the British units in CMFI I have stumbled on a few irregularities that look a bit off. I will try to explain them below, I think that at least some of them are mistakes, and I will give a link to my spreadsheet that most definitely will contain mistakes.

Here is the spreadsheet

1. There is no I in TEAM, and no team in a section.

Overall I must say that Battlefront has made an excellent job with the British, there are sections, detachments and so on instead of the usual squads and teams of the other nations. There are a few mistakes though with som remaining teams here and there.

The heavy antitank sections in the independent antitank battery has only teams instead of detachments.

All machinegun platoons have a 2IC team and each section has a HQ team, they should both be sections.

The pack howitzer troop has a 2IC team and the sections has a HQ team as well as ammo bearer teams, they should be sections and detachments.

The airborne forward observer is a team instead of a party.

The airborne AT-sections have HQ and AT teams instead of sections and detachments.

Airborne Bren sections have on detachmnet and one team instead of two detachments.

The airlanding battalion has two HQ sections in its companies instead of one HQ and one 2IC section.

The para sniper sections have teams in them, not detachments.

2. Why should I carry your ammo, carry it yourself!

The ammo bearers for the pack howitzer independent team are really lazy, they don't carry any howitzer ammo at all. The ammo bearers in the Pack Howitzer Battery DO carry howitzer ammo, so something is not right.

For the Bofors AA ammo bearers, the situation is reversed. The ammo bearers for the independent guns carry 40mm ammo, but the ammo bearers in the AA battery don't.

3. Who stole my binoculars?

All AT guns have bioculars except the 17-pdr, the airborne HQ 6-pdr and the 6-pdrs of the airlanding AT-company. Are they not supposed to be used at long range?

The motorized rifle sections have binoculars while mounted in trucks, but if you buy them dismounted and give one section a PIAT then that section will lose their binoculars.

All detachments but one in the armoured recce troops (riding in the Stuart Recce) have binoculars but the assistant troop leader.

Independent scout detachments have no binoculars at all, apparently they aren't important for scouting.

Aiborne independent scout detachments have TWO binoculars, apparently they are stealing them from everybody else.

Feel free to comment the spreadsheet and point out all the mistakes you see so that they can be corrected ASAP.

I also want to know if there is a demand for this sort of spreadsheet, should I finish the other nationalities as well?

BTR,
 
You know that the Swedes found physical evidence that a sub had been there, right?
 
But they couldn't tell if it was a Russian sub or just a Russian sub operated by local separatists though.
