Link to my site about the book as requested:

Sorry Red Bag Charge 8 isn't in it (yet), although there is a comprehensive section on what a charge is and how it can be made in increments.

I could provide an annex of Infantry terms and phrases vis-a-vis the Artillery!

Don't be too quick - I have unhappy memories of an RCHA Regimental shoot that landed too close to my Platoon position one time! the shock of the rounds bounced me off the ground a good 8"....'Dropshort' was the nicest thing we said that day....

Whilst the book is mainly about the terms and abbreviations used by the regiment, I have included more than a few derogatory nicknames from other branches, as you say, Dropshort is probably the nicest one out there, and it is already in the book!
