Soldiers of The Sarawak Rangers 1953 - 1963. Part 2. No. 2 Platoon.

Compared to No. 1 platoon which had 43 soldiers, No. 2 platoon had only 30 soldiers. What was the rationale, I don't now. It looked like the strength of the Iban Trackers at the time when it was reformed into Sarawak Rangers (Malayan Unit) in February 1953 was only 73. Why were they not splitted equally in numbers, were equally baffling.
