	HQ 1 Division
		The 1st (UK) Armoured Division is now the only British division to be stationed in Germany, from a peak of 4 divisions during the height of the Cold War, though it is not the only element of the British Forces in Germany.
		The impact of this restructuring was that the British Army of the Rhine was reduced to a strength of 1 Armoured Division with supporting troops.
		The tank regiments are in the process of being equipped with our most recent main battle tank, Challenger 2 whilst the infantry are equipped with the Warrior Armoured Infantry Fighting Vehicle.

	Remember Canada
		The Eighth British Army (including the 1st Canadian Division, the 5th British Division and the 1st Canadian Army Tank Brigade) would lead the way across the Strait of Messina to the toe of Italy, and then advance towards Naples.
		The 1st British Airborne Division would land by sea in the Taranto area and seize the heel of the peninsula.
		It was therefore vital for the Eighth Army to advance toward the rear of the German defence and assist in the U.S. breakout from the bridgehead.

		The combatants on the Axis side were the Panzer Army Afrika, consisting of German and Italian units and commanded by the "Desert Fox" Colonel-General Erwin Rommel; the Allied forces were the British Eighth Army, commanded by Major General Neil Ritchie under the close supervision of the Commander-in-Chief Middle East, General Sir Claude Auchinleck.
		Following Rommel's attack in January 1942, the Allies had retreated across Libya to a strong position on a line between the fortified port of Tobruk on the Mediterranean coast and the town of Bir Hakeim to the south.
		On May 27 Rommel personally led elements of Panzer Army Afrika – the Afrika Korps, the Italian XX Motorized Corps, and the German 90th Light Afrika Division – in a brilliant but risky flank around the southern end of the British lines, trusting to the enemy's own minefields to protect his flank and rear.

	The U.S. Army Professional Writing Collection
		Unlike the U.S. and British armies, where the infantry fighting vehicles are organic to the mechanized infantry battalions, the Marines have a large assault amphibian battalion at division level that attaches its vehicles to infantry regiments based on the mission.
		According to conventional wisdom, tanks should be extremely vulnerable in urban terrain, but in fact tanks led most advances into Iraqi cities, most famously during the Baghdad "thunder runs." This was true in the case of the Army, Marine, and British forces.
		Army and Marine personnel cited numerous cases in which external gear on the Bradleys and AAVs (such as sea or duffle bags) often caused RPGs to detonate prematurely, usually negating the shaped charge effect against the hull.

		The 1st Canadian Infantry Division was formed at the outbreak of war, received elementary training and was in place in Britain by Feb of 1940.
		1st Corps had been designed to command 3 infantry divisions and 2 tank brigades, 2 Corps was to command 2 armoured divisions, consequently the 4th Infantry Division (still in Canada) was redesignated and retrained as the 4th Armoured
		The government did not approve the retention of this unit, so when the 2nd Army Tank Brigade arrived overseas in June 1943 it was disbanded and the 3rd was renamed the 2nd in its place.
