About the British Infantry British infantry squads were made up of 10 men organized around the Bren light machinegun,and consisted of a machinegun group, formed by the second-in-command, machine gunnerand loader, and a rifle group made up of 6 riflemen. The squad leader commanded bothgroups. The infantry uniform was marked by the distinctively shaped Mark II helmet, while theso-called Battledress of short wool jacket, leggings and boots was worn by all branches ofthe army.
