Stacked SMLEs

I have concluded that stacking was a fairly pointless bit of drill, unless someone has a good reason?

Keeps the rifles out of the mud and the dirt well you are encamped. Otherwise you were just laying your rifle on the ground.

Lot of history in that trophy Bruce, I had it out for a polish up.
My uncle won that as a Tyro in 1936, he was disembowelled by the Japs in the Alexandra Hospital Massacre just before the fall of Singapore.
His cousin was on the Thai Burma Railway after his capture, died in Sandaken in 1943.
