Informing the Army’s Future Structure

Now you're just quoting medieval history

See first part of my handle: "Old". I am pretty medieval.

P.S.: You do know that Hearts of Oak you quote refers to the wonderful year ... of 1759.

That last time anything made sense

My latest ponderings have me envisioning something like this:

Not bad - and not just because it follows much of my own line of thinking.

Two small thoughts.

Each of the two armoured divisions needs a strong divisional cavalry regiment in addition to the two brigades.

The artillery battalion in Latvia should have three batteries rather than three troops.

How is the Defence of Canada Division going to be structured? It sounds like the ten CBGs are staying. One division commander and headquarters is going to manage ten brigades? Doesn't seem efficient.

Good news, the CBGs aren't real Brigades so 1 Div HQ is perfect.

If the increase to 100,000 PRes is for real then they will be real brigades in size at least (and quite possibly bigger).

This line from "Inflection Point" continues to be my primary concern that things will not go well.

The CA must also develop ARes self-sufficiency in terms of training, operations, and sustainment to accomplish the needed capacity to support modernization efforts.

100,000 is a pipe dream. We cant even kit out 50,000.
