billcarey Posted December 28, 1999 Share Posted December 28, 1999 Who in an allied rifle squad carried the Thomson SMG? I always thought it was the Seargant. I only ask this because I split a squad and the Corporal's squad ended up with the SMG. Not that it matters... - Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goanna Posted December 28, 1999 Share Posted December 28, 1999 I think it would be the corporal. I always had to carry the damn thing when I was in. The squad leader would probably always delegate this, but I would defer to a grog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berlichtingen Posted December 28, 1999 Share Posted December 28, 1999 Sergeants, being the salty dogs that they are, would realize that humping a Thompson and its ammo is a pain in the ass. Being the next thing to God in the squad, sergeants can get some other poor slob to carry it while carrying a nice, light weight carbine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
