256th was a Louisiana National Guard infantry brigade. Per the somewhat sketchy Wikipedia entry (consider the source carefully):

I do not know about the 256th Infantry Brigade. But back in the early 90's I was in the WA Guard 81st Infantry Brigade, we had two tank battalions (303AR, 803AR), two infantry battalions (1-161Inf, 3-161Inf), one engineer battalion (898Eng), one artillery battalion (2-146FA), one support battalion (181 support), one cavalry troop (E-303), one mash (C-med), one transportation company (1140 tran I think), one MP platoon, one Stinger platoon, and the BDE headquarters. Over the years they have been reduced to now they have one Special Troops Battalion, one Infantry Battalion, one Cavalry (Armor) Squadron, one Artillery battalion, one support battalion and the BDE headquarters. Also the word now is that they are going to get rid of the tanks and go with strikers. As for the numbers I do not know for sure now, but when I was in each tank battalion had four companies of 14 tanks (three four tank platoons with two tank command section), and a two tank command section at the battalion headquarters for a total of 58 tanks. I was told that the infantry had the same number of tracks.
