Bahger Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Forward Line of Own Troops Battalion Battery Platoon The last three are all conventional unit designations by size/chain of command. "Company" would be placed between "Platoon" and "Battalion". "Battery" refers only to artillery and designates a certain number of guns (cannot recall how many).
