What I meant was the title "Regiment" exists for Esprit de Corps and history purposes......... As a force structure.... they are not Regiments any longer.
That is the regimental system that the British have been using for centuries, and the US adopted at the end of the Pentomic era. With the exception of the cavalry regiments and the US Marines, of course-- they still have actual regiments as formed units.
