Does anyone know the differences between groups of soldiers. As in what is the difference between a battery and a company? Thanks, Ria :)

Google 'military groupings' and select the second listing (starts with Nomenclature). It should tell you what you need to know. Jack

Thanks for that Jack. It is something I have wondered about, and even though my son was in the army, I never got round to asking him. It does indeed tell you all you need to know. I've saved to my favourites. Kath. x
