Here is the link to the Army Times story about the U.S. Army cutting an additional five BCTs, which would bring the planned total to 13. I doubt many at this site are surprised by this news, but which brigades will be cut? The fourth brigade from most divisions? Does anyone here have some knowledge or know the Army plan?

Also, the Army is changing name of the HBCT to the Armored Brigade Combat Team - why? Is the structure/design of the brigade going to change?
