US ARMY Organization

[Thiel]

Of course by the time they had to face Garands the Germans were armed with everything from Kragh-Jorgensens to Carcanos and their machine guns were just as mixed a bag. In fact the German army of 1944 bore an increasingly eery similarity to the German army of 1918. They too carried reichs revolvers older than themselves, walked everywhere and had to eat their horses.

I would like to finish with ACR support but I’m little bit stuck with all the semi-trailers.
So, and to test an alternate picture host, there is a typical Corps artillery organisation from the late 90’s.
The brigade level is modular, pending on supported or reinforced units.
Corps Target Acquisition Detachment is to support light infantry division.
