Pelilue HASL USMC counter question.

[Kevin Kenneally]

All,


Just beginning to sort out the counters from this HASL and I have USMC 4-4-7s and 3-3-6 counters.

I do not see anything about them on the National Characteristics chart.

There have "funky" symbols on the counter in the upper right corner.

Please advise what these are and what are the HSs that go with them.

Rules packed away for the moment.

no idea but those are the exact FP/ range / ML for early war US army 447 ELR to 336 - maybe th funny symbol is supposed to be the P.A. Army symbol of some type?

now I am entirely good with 4-4-7 USMC ELR to 3-3-6 for say Dec 1941 garrison commands on Guam, etc.

Just to bump this up if you haven't figured out the symbol, it's the C-B's (Construction Battalion). By this time in the war they were at least partially armed and trained to fight as well.

Hi All

C-B's always pop up in John Wayne pictures - maybe we should get them into one of the movie packs from Desperation Morale!
