A few more:
Minden, Hook, Java, Oudna (Para), Tamera (Para)

Extra info: Although most of these platoon titles seem to be battle Honours to the Regiments whose soldiers train at ITC Catterick, "Hook" is not "The Hook" Korean honour but is named after Henry Hook VC of the 24th Foot won at Rourke's Drift in 1879.
The "Route 66" shield shape is that used on the School of Infantry TRF.
