Somewhere, buried deep in a box at home, I have a couple of copied pages
from an Australian Army Infantry handbook. They have stick figures
showing all of the hand signals to be used in action. I could probably
dig them up and scan them for you if you like.

Some friends and I went to the trouble of learning them all for a
Twilight: 2000 game at a con in 1989 (Now if only we hadn't shot up the
communications station...)

cheers
Geoff
