Armoured Rifle Platoon (Winter)

The armoured rifle platoon remains a miniature army in its own right, able to keep up with the tanks with their half-tracks and trained to rapidly take ground and hold it against all comers. Heavy machine-guns, light machine-guns, automatic rifles, bazookas, light mortars – yes sir, we have all of those.

In the muddy terrain of the Rhineland, the armoured infantry found that riding on tanks gave them better mobility than their own M3 half-tracks. As a result, they often fought dismounted and left their half-tracks behind.
