Anyone know of a good WW2 TOE? I am looking for something company to battalion level for the major combatants of WW2.

Wrong forum, and your question is kind of pointless. All militaries used different systems, and many had multiple versions for each type of formation. Then of course in practice, TO&E could vary wildly and all sorts of attachments would be added onto or be taken from a division in the field.

Would a mod please move this to gaming and Computers please? Thank You.

Why is this in G&C?

Yeah got Blitzkreig Commander and was wonmdering what vehicles and squads were in a company in WW2. Thats why I asked aout books on TOE the game is set up on the armor skirmish or higher level. IE 1 vehicle=1 mini or one stand = 1 squad
