Ok..... The main problem for man power numbers that your looking at peace time numbers. NATO allies do not have the resources to keep large forces on hand for contingencies ..... The other thing that is going to throw you is the definitions of Squad, Section, Company, Battalion, Regiment, Divsion, Corps, and Army vary greatly.
I am hazarding a guess that most are intended to be the core cadre of rapidly fielded larger formations during a war time call up. Example, a peacetime four platoon armor company getting poached to make two or three company sized units.... dividing up the active duty among the green troops.
