Louie,
I thought about the 8-40th too. I also thought the 1-180th FA would eventually become the OPFORs FA battalion in the 90s, leaving the 2-180th for DS to this brigade. You could then convert the 153rd FA Bde HQ to be the HQ for this Heavy Bde (158th?). Makes one wonder where they intended to place the other elements. NM was scheduled to lose a large chunk ADA assets in the 90s. They might be able to provide a battalion. Just a thought.
If I come across more I'll post other than what I posted above.
