A joe with a broken leg is going to be in a cast for 8 - 12 weeks plus double or triple that for physical therapy. So you have a "broke dick" on your roster that is loaned out as a desk anchor until they are 100% returned to duty. You don't get a physically healthy replacement during that time. Some units consolidate all of them into one platoon, or assign them to the HQ under a SSG (p) waiting to pin on SFC.

I'm using research, a handful of books myself. I know flights, squadrons, groups, wings. Anything smaller than a flight is an element..... But the source for this was a book for aspiring battalion commanders. The books not matching is a big No-No, a lot of valuable stuff is destroyed, buried, or mishandled.
