less station. The second military pack W.T. station will be disembarked with the third brigade to land; it will be placed on a flank and used mainly for fire control under the B.G.R.A. A wagon wireless station at G.H.Q., Imbros, will be in communication with both these pack W.T. stations. One officer and 23 other ranks, with two pack animals from the Brigade Signal Section, will be landed with each Infantry Brigade. These parties will lay their cable by hand and establish telephone and vibrator communication from the beach forward. No vehicles will be landed in the first instance, all necessary stores being man-handled. Three officers, 74 other ranks, 28 animals and five vehicles will be landed with Divisional Headquarters. The advance parties will release the brigade sections from the beach and be prepared to lay cable lines by hand. Two cable wagons will be included in the five vehicles, and should be the first of those vehicles to be disembarked. ----------------------+----------------------+--------------------+ Time of Arrival | | | off Coast. | Craft. | Capacity. | ----------------------+----------------------+--------------------+ In time to disembark |10 motor lighters |500 infantry | all troops, |(10 steamboats |each (and | vehicles, horses, |accompanying) |400,000 rds. | stores, etc., by | |S.A.A. if necessary)| night | | | | | | |10 destroyers |530 infantry | | |each | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |1 sloop, towing |600 men | |1 motor lighter |88 horses | |and 4 horseboats |8 mtn. guns | |(1 steamboat |30 bicycles | |accompany
