PUBLIC SCHOOLS (MINOR) BRIGADE (1) - INFANTRY and COMMAND

Major-General Everard, C-in-C of Crown Forces in the County of Herefordshire, has long been calling for reinforcements - sometimes rather desperately. Edward VIII has now despatched to the County "the flower of Royalist youth", none other than the newly uniformed and heavily equipped Public Schools (Minor) Brigade: 

Minors from the minor Public Schools - 4 sections of Schoolboy Infantry

HQ Command Section - CinC, No.2, Medic, Standard Bearer (no standard yet) and 2 "runners"

Command Section Transport - comfortable C-in-C saloon and Recruiting/Supply Vehicle

March-past in parade order : the C-in-C reviews some infantry sections.

Notes: 

(1). these are identifiable as boys from the Minor Public Schools because they are conventionally uniformed (in the smaller sizes). Combat units from the major public schools, such as Eton, Harrow, Winchester, etc., obviously went into battle in the VBCW in top hat and tails, or boaters and short jackets.

(2). the officers and nurse are slim 30mms from Marks Little Soldiers - an irresistible purchase from HERE. The "boys" themselves were obtained via a "very cheep unlabelled" joblot purchase from Ebay - more on their origins in blogposts to come. For the moment we can only say that, notwithstanding their purported youth, these infantry figures are in fact as old as the VBCW itself !
