Battalion Organisational Changes

As mentioned in earlier posts I have now revised the structure of all Medical and Command battalions and Cavalry regiments.
 For Cavalry the change is that the number of squadrons within the regiment has been increased from three to four. With Medical battalions the main change is the restructuring of the surgical company. As far as Command battalions are concerned the changes include a reduction in the size of the Signals company and the revision of the Staff company into directorates. In addition I have introduced aides de camp for each General officer.
These changes have now been included in the organisational posts for these units. The total overall  effect is to increase the number of soldiers within the Army group by 740 giving a new authorised strength of 46,542. At the time of writing I have 44,998 soldiers in service.
Other changes are currently under consideration and these will be posted as and when they occur.

Since writing the above several other changes have been introduced including the elimination of Artillery brigades, creation of Army Command brigades and addition of Heavy Weapons companies to each Infantry battalion. This has resulted in an increase in the authorised strength of the armies to just under 52000.
