Re: Bradley formations
........the Benning document is current,--Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-21.8 Infantry Platoon and Squad April 2016 so not something that was published in the early 80s. Under the section SURVIVABILITY.....it lists "10-Soldier gas particulate filter unit.)..
10......not 9, 8 or 7......10
It also says
"Three, nine-man rifle squads make up the platoon’s dismounted element" and that = 27
Crews are three men except one of the four vehicles includes the unit commander. and that = 13
That's 40 men in 4 vehicles and unless the Benning document is pure propaganda that means in game there are 7 dismounts and 3 crew per vehicle and a 1-year-old document from the US Army trumps a 27 year old Concord publication published in 1990 .
