That's an interedting way of utilizing him. Does he serve as the OC's wingman?

In our community, we have scouts rather than infantry squads, so the platoon commander does not likely dismount as much. He has a sergeant in charge of the scout section. For years there has been a muddled debate on whether the LAV-25s support the scouts, or vice versa. The focus was fairly clear when they were LAI (light armored infantry) battalions, but the LAR (reconnaissance) battalions operate off an almost bastardized version of Army cavalry doctrine, mixed in with an almost unhealthy belief that we can take on anything due to the nature of the 25mm chain gun.

The Aussies have an equally unique means of employment, since scouts norinfantry are carried in the back of -25s, but in LAV-PC variants that are fairly roomy compared to our biggest variant, the LAV-L (logistics). They were running 2 PCs with 4 -25s to form platoons when I was a part oc Talisman Sabre.
