Question on Military Unit Sizes

This brought to mind a picture that is I'm sure NOT what you were talking about!

Sizes also vary a bit between units. A Marine Rifle Company is larger than its army equivalent. Or at least it was when I was on active duty. Also, the "attachments" thing is very important. You can really bolster the strength of a unit by attaching some ofther units. For example, a Marine division may have its normal complement of troops plus an extra battalion of tanks attached.

Thank you. I needed a laugh today.
