Iron Stringbean -> Airborne Battlegroups (3/23/2011 6:26:28 PM)

Are the American airborne battlegroups supposed to have MG Teams instead of BAR teams? I noticed in my grand campaign, the AB has MG Teams while in individual battles they have BAR teams. That, and it just seems odd that the airborne BG's would come with so much heavy MG's.
I'm wondering if I somehow messed up my data files by installing and deleting mods...
*edit* I stand corrected.
"This air-cooled, belt-fed, tripod mounted machine-gun laid the central base of fire for WW2 PIR tactics. In rifle companies, there was one LMG in each 12 man rifle squad, there were three to a rifle platoon and 9 to a rifle company. (Regular Infantry companies depended on the B.A.R.in each squad, to provide the base of fire for maneuvering against the enemy)." -From http://www.101airborneww2.com/equipment.html
