South Vietnam

Anyone got a link to OOB of the South Vietnam Armored Cav units?

A while back maybe 10 years or so I found a site that listed the OOB of a Vietnamese Armored Cav now I can't find it. Just how many they had not the composition.

Found a site by accident.

A lot of info but not quite what you are after though it does show assigned strengths and if you REALLY need to know how many pounds of grease they used this has that

Just needed to know what companies and platoons it had.

So from 56 to early 60's it was one armored car squadron , 2 armored Recon squadrons. In Early 60's it was one armored car squadron and 3 armed recon squadrons then they added two Mech Infantry Companies and then they took out armored car squadron.
