HQ Units... who are those guys?


Recommended Posts

I'd figure a Company CO (6) consists of:

1 Captain/Hauptmann

2 or so executives (lieutenants, sergeants)

2 or so men to operate/haul radio equipment

plus a few extras

A platoon/battalion would have essentially fewer/more of the same.

Battalion and up contain a lot of admin and logistics guys as well as signalers, cooks, drivers, medics, etc., etc. They also tend to have special weapons units attached to them, like AT and AA guns. The higher up the food chain you go, the larger and larger the headquarters and attached units get.
