I am looking for the paper organization for the Paraguayan infantry down to the squad level for the Chaco War. I have the Bolivian information (according to MicroMark), but the MicroMark Paraguayan list does not provide what a Paraguayan squad consisted of.

Khurasan gives a field organization as…

Infantry squads of about eight men were normal, and this is the basic pack in the line.

But I would like the actual by the book composition, if one exists.

Hi Rhysius – alas that link is for a war that the Paraguayans did not fight in, and was sixty years earlier. :) But, thanks for the effort!!!

Speaking of the Chaco War, does anyone know what has happened to Orinoco Miniatures and their beautiful line of Chaco War figures?
