Hello all,
Can anyone tell me how US Army infantry battalions were organized during the Korean War? I tried to google TOEs but ended up more confused than when I started. I just need to know how many rifle, weapons and/or support companies were assigned to each battalion and how many and what type of platoons in these companies.
I've see regimental rosters which showed four lettered companies (eg: Alpha through Delta) assigned to a battalion, but I'm not sure if they're all rifle cos or if one is a weapons co. I've also read documents which state the US system had three rifle cos as opposed to the British four.
Thanks in advance.
