Given that the Infantry bloc in this little junket are, by nature, civilised and well-mannered (as opposed to, for example, the Artillery), are we advised to bring our own tablecloths, napkins, KFS and mess kits; or were we expected to eat off old oily cardboard box tops with our fingers, like the riff-raff?
(that simply won't do, y'know, sets a bad example for the men while they're digging our L-shaped trenches for the bivouac
)
Your guidance eagerly sought.
