Hi Dragoner, sorry for the delayed response, been busy. This is truly an impressive document. One question -- where did you get the information on which formations had Bradleys/M113s? I've been looking for that for a while... Thanks, Pat

Hi Pat, that's of different sources and took some time to verify. In most cases I could find at least a chronicle or a unit website giving reliable information on what type they used in 1989, in dubious cases I contacted former unit members. Some german officers working together with us-troops in those days were helpful too. What I could not find out were the recon platoons. Some Bradley-battalions still had M113s in their recon platoon, vice versa some M113-battalions got Bradleys for the recon platoon first. That's mentioned in a remark on page 52, but of course it's in german.

Hi, I am interested in an OOB for the Norwegian Army in the late 1980's.

I have read both the NATO 1989 OOB's on mircoarmormayhem and on orbat.com, but I am interested in a greater depth to battalion-level numbers/names. Does anyone know where I could find such information? Regards,

I found this sometime back, may help Norwegian Army - Order of Battle Accurate as of 1 January 2005 The Norwegian Army Order of Battle was the collective brainchild of myself, JC700 and pengolodh_sc, and has been compiled after several discussions via email. The OOB is heavily based on the OOB of the Norwegian Army anno 1989, with some modifications to fit with the backstory for TLW and the continuation of the Soviet threat into the 1990s and 21st century.

Thats quite a bit of good info IMHO. Despite it being 2000's / 2010's based in terms of equipment, it still is a lot of good information.

In relation to the BAOR in the 1980's with regard to Pat's OOB on mircoarmormayhem, I have a question about British Army infantry battalions. The Green Howards are mentioned as having a 'D Company' as an extra company. I understand that the three regular parachute battalions and the Gurkha's had more companies than other regular battalions. IMHO, each regular battalion assigned to the BAOR or to the 'ACE' mobile force had three infantry companies and a fire support / heavy weapons company. Would these fire support / heavy weapons companies have a company title i.e. 'D Fire Support Company'? Or would they be 'Fire Support Company'? I mention the Green Howards because, the way I am reading it, they would have five companies on strength. Or, do I have this all wrong. This confuses me when it comes to company titles / numbering because the Coldstream Guards had 'No. 1', 'No. 2', 'No. 3' and 'No. 4' companies in their 1st Battalion in the 1980's period, I believe. If one of those companies came with a mortar platoon, a reece platoon and an assault pioneer platoon - to use the Coldstream Guards as another example - would one of those aformentioned companies be for fire support of would an extra company be available? To say I am confused on this issue would be an understatement.

Companies are called whatever the Battalion or Regiment wanted them to be called, either through tradition or just because. Quite often they would be re-numbered or re-lettered or one would effectively be folded into the other two if recruitment was down. I wouldn't look for a pattern, you'll go mad.

Jimmygreenhull,

Just like Phil said, Company numbering/lettering is usually based on tradition, each Bn/Regiment going its own way. Some Bns, such as 3 RGJ would have their Fire Support Company lettered. In 3 RGJ it was letter I Coy. In 1 Staffords it was just Support Coy. 1 KORB it was Somme Coy. In 1989/90 1 Green Howards, according to their history, were so well recruited (apparently the best in the army) they were able to form an additional Rifle Coy. This 4th Rifle Coy however found itself almost permanently attached to Bns in NI who were short of personnel. As for the Guards you will be more confused to know 1 Grenadier Gds had a Queen's Coy (the senior Coy with the tallest men) 1 Welsh Gds POW Coy (same as the Grenadiers)and several other Guard Bns used Right Flank and Left Flank Coys to indicate their Senior and Junior Coys
