The “lager” was the night time gathering in of the company, not beer. Lager was an old German/British term. Actually I was in 2-27FA as a recon Sgt for B/1/32. The 2LT who got his M-16 bent was the FO team chief for my battery. We were short 2LT FOs, so, as the senior recon Sgt, I was sent to B Company as its primary FO. Thus I was in the first group of 13F FIST team MOS folks.
I know, I was teasing, I think the word ( laager ) came into English via the Anglo-Boer War.
