all to true, however, the independent brigades do have a purpose, which clumping them into a division negates. There is also a maxim that units that don't train together, don't fight well together. The Pesian Gulf Two had a division cavalry squadron that was downgraded to armored HMMWVs and was reinforced two weeks prior to the start with an armor company attachment. The AARs that I've seen have all pointed out that the tankers didn't work well with the cavalry scouts.
