Korean War

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.

Jarod,

See from page 71: http://www.history.army.mil/books/Li...nfantry.htm#10

Companies would be lettered with the 1st Battalion having four companies: Three rifle companies: Able, Baker, Charlie with Dog as the Heavy Weapons Company.

2nd Battalion: Easy, Fox, George with How as Weps.
3rd Battalion: Item (J was not used as a company letter), King, Love with Mike as Weps.

Here's the 1952 TO & E for an infantry battalion: http://cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/s...9/id/831/rec/3

Here's the 1950 TO & E for an infantry regiment:

These TOEs are laid out a lot better than the stuff I was looking at. Thanks a bunch.
