Hi David, yeah the 3rd Battalion has taken some losses. The 388th is about one single Rifle Regiment in the rather large Westfor Army Group (North). The series so far only introduces you to the 3rd Battalion of the 388th. In the Gen-Eg series the regiment has three battalions plus a headquarters company and attached units in it until a Bloc massive counterattack. I’m loosely basing these formations on old US Army units, using Regiments instead of Brigades. But units lose men, some get rebuilt some get disbanded and the soldiers rolled into other units. Thanks for commenting.
With all the casualties they’ve taken, does the 388th even EXIST any more?

Did you use names from Platoon as characters in the web-comic? I just noticed it!
Winner, winner chicken dinner! You are correct, most characters are the same names of characters from Platoon.
Platoon?
From the movie Platoon.
