Gamecock:

well, I think you buys are about Brigade Size at this time, which is roughly a 3 battalions. I think in WWII a Combat Team was considered in essence a Brigade. For WWII buffs, Gen Patton sent a Combat Team 30 miles behind German lines to liberate a POW camp that his Son in law was a POW in. It failed, and anti Patton forces used that to question his impulsive behavior. A few days later, it was liberated by some Patton’s troops anyway.

Now back to you getting a battalion command!, I respect Alex Murphy as a worthy opponent and respect his Military leadership skills in designating his Battalion commanders. If he deems you worthy of the honor of a Battalion Leader FR Calvinist Brigade, who am I to question that!!!! and I look forward to meeting you on the allegorical field of battle!!
