both sides will be operating from a fixed base where assorted packs containing sandwiches can be kept until required.

It aint a long day, or a grueling march so we will not be stopping for lunch. However you can eat in the field at appropriate moments as you see fit - coincidentally the 'activities' between 12-1 happen to be kind of good for this. So you can take your snacks with you to your designated assignment and enjoy - just make sure you post a sentry (and remember the mission comes before your tuna sandwich REGARDLESS of how much delicious mayonnaise there is on it).

So that will be tea, bully beef and bread, tea, bread and jam, and more tea ?

And I hope that you are using condensed milk in the tea :)

Or am I confused with your period breakfast?

RETIRED, thanks for some truly memorable times and great people

Remember - this is Vichy France, not occupied France. Officially both sides should not be here as it is a separate neutral nation, but during the chaos of its early days the opportunity is provided for our unit/s' actions.

Mais oui. The French Mle 38 musette pack was actually designed to hold a bottle of wine. Well, mine seems to have been. :)
