      I was using it as well... namely because of articles like the one i had originally found on FAS and another site that is like it, but i lost the url address when my old computer died. It had official TOE of the various army units from Corps to company, but i couldn't understand what i was reading and why i came up with the way i write things up.
      Fuck being a hero. Do you know what you get for being a hero? Nothing! You get shot at. You get a little pat on the back, blah blah blah, attaboy! You get divorced... Your wife can't remember your last name, your kids don't want to talk to you... You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me kid, nobody wants to be that guy. I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.

        You want the MTOE for units to write them up as canon

        Every sort of Combat Arms unit has a company level FM, and Battalion level FM, Regimental (Cav), and Brigade.

        Service Units have Company, Battalion level, and Brigade.

        So in the appropriate FMs you can find out manpower, major end items and number, authorized weapons, and slice elements.

        Example Fm 7-8 Infantry Rifle Platoon and Squad.

            That's just it... I don't have a means to gain access to the FM anymore.

                  Google is your friend for US field manuals.
                  Try finding an Australian military PAM online though...

                      I know this is going to be Off-Topic, but I've got a question about the Mobile Command Post armored vehicle... Just what are they how are they used

                      I've seen in movies where the Army has a tractor trailer truck turned into a mobile command vehicle, and I've seen Police departments use the same kind of setup for their field command posts during massive manhunts and the search and resuce operations. Are these the same thing as the specially built tracked command posts I'm aving a problem seeing this because the commandpost looks so small.

                        You know if I remember correctly during WW2 the M4 was not officially known as the Sherman. I think it was the Brits that gave it that moniker. Actually they may have started the naming of Tanks. Silly Brits.

                          Yep, the Brits named our tanks -- and aircraft* -- early on the war. I think the only US tanks named by the Americans in WWII were the M-24 Chaffee and M-26 Pershing. Not sure about the M-22 Locust.

                          *Some aircraft were named (and trademarked!) by the companies that built them before the war, for marketing purposes

                            To be fair, we were also the ones who named them Tanks in the first place!

                                Yes, PAMs (the British equivalent of a field manual) exist. However, they are not generally available to the public, being as they are Restricted.
