Air Cav unit designations
I have searched the internet for an answer before asking this question so here goes...
Can anyone tell me what the meaning of the suffixes attatched to Vietnam era Air Cav units in the US Army OOB?
How do the platoon (I) and support (I) units fit in with the platoon (M) and support (M) units?
I have scoured the net for info on air cav unit organisation and have simply ended up more confused than before with so many different aviation units fielded by the USA in Vietnam. I'm a firm believer in sticking with the OOBs as the designers intended them rather than creating a formation to mirror real life deployments exactly, but I would just like to know what these unit designations mean and which ones I should purchase for a fairly realistic force structure.
Cheers
Bernard
