These are the actual combat brigades that form the 1st division. The division has many other logistic and supportunits. I only have to find out what all the abbreviations mean. I have everything from a major from an HQ unit. I have forgotten a lot.

Author's Note:

Most units and weapons are in the tacops weapons base.
You run into trouble with the infantry squads though.
There are 7 men with an mg and an at weapon.You can choose both squadweapons as
teams of 2 man. than there are 3 riflemen left.there is no way to solve that it
is 1 man to many or one short.
The same goes for the vehicle ,I use to choose the NZ/AU- m-113 with 25mm
this vehicle is similar in performance and weapons but fields 6 men as the
bradley and other afv's. -- Henk.
