I am cataloging my Micro Armor and getting ready to fill in some holes. I have the basics for an armor company for Flames of War. But if I wanted to model the entire thing including trucks, recovery vehciles, support et. al. is there a good resource for a TO&E? |

Go to the George Nafziger orders of battle collection. it is at the Combined Arms Research Library (look up "George Nafziger orders of battle" in google). He has OB's covering many periods and he donated them ALL. example: Organization, American Field Artillery, Division Artillery Infantry or MotorizedDivision, 1 April 1942, Table of Organization 6-10, as modified on 7/18/42 &10/29/42 PDF link |

Get the index (is pdf) then find the TO&E you want (listed PDF) and download the TO&E. |

The basic tank battalion is here: PDF link This page has the equipment and manpower totals for all the major subunits of an armored (sic) division if you scroll down a bit – it also references which t/o the totals came from, making it easy to Google for a more detailed breakdown. link |

another good resource is the MicroMark lists. They are usually around a $1 USD on Wargames Vault |

They're an excellent starting point when looking at a new army, but they normally list only combat elements, not the B echelon stuff that Mark wants as well. |

There is a TO&E Yahoo Group. |

What I gave you included the TO&Es of ALL the major combatants of WWII (with their variations). George was extremely detailed and I remember buying TO&Es for 10 cents a page before he contributed his TO&Es to the Combined Arms museum. Download the index from:

As a sample, here is the TO&Es for:
Equipment, Weapons, and Organization, SS Reich Division, 22 June 1941
PDF link Organization of British Tank Brigades, Structure and Brigade Elemental Assignments by Regiment, 1939-1945 PDF link Detailed Organization, American Armored Regiment, Light Armored Battalionor Light Tank Company, 15 November 1940, Table of Organization 17-17 PDF link |
