<< (Cp Lima (Karbala), Iraq) >>

Does 'Cp' mean 'Camp'? Inquiring minds want to know.

The generic formation name suggests that ALL of the Regiment or Brigade is deployed. We know that is not correct, but it sure sounds impressive.

Reading the placenames reminds me of some of the word games we played in Bosnia. Gornji Vakuf = Grungy F$%& Off, Donji Vakuf = Dingy F@#% Off. Any new ones in the lexicon?

How inventive,...

In Bosnia 99 I didn't know of any 'nicknames'. Demi, Dobol, McGovern (all Camps) then Han Piasak (sp), WS-054, Vlasnicia,WS-087, Klandanj,and Milicia were the biggest towns on patrols. Some Ran up to Zvornik anddown to Sebernicia every now and then. Of course, Sarajevo was cool for a 'night over'.

Oh yeah, sorry - Camp.

And yes, it pretty much means that where the brigade HQ is - or at least in many cases that's where the brigade press releases originate from Wink
