The most basic meaning of 'strength', in regards to an infantry battalion, in this context, is, "actual live bodies on the ground doing the job".

P.S. - if still :, please consult the "Jifferoo", or if that doesn't produce an answer.....maybe ask your two 24 and 7 bodyguards (I've forgotten their names, but I think one has a Sten....)

I think of "strength" as meaning "ALIVE" bodies ... but in this case they meant TOS on an "alive" active 'list".

Rupert (my favorite) and Tom hold gaurd devotedly, but unfortunately are mute so can not answer questions.

Yes ... there's no doubt left that Grandpa (WW1 RWR's) knew. He just didn't know the details ... or everything that came after. Granny was on her own with it all.

I like how you're chronologically posting this stuff (or trying to in spite of my messing with the file). So much easier to see this this way rather than pages and pages of papers all over the place.

Thanks!
