Yeah.
But for a. . . picking an example at random, marine
biologist :), I figured the evolution of the
Regimental system over the past 300 years in both the
US and UK was a bit complex, from multi-BN regiments
to single-BN regiments, to regiments with BNs on
active service and others in depot (some Brit
regiments had 30 BNs active during WWI), with a
sideline on the CARS system. . .
No.
