If you have been reading Matt Wiser posts you have no doubt heard of the 13th Armored Cavalry Regiment. Over the weekend I did some researching trying to figure out how the unit would look and function. Here is what I came up with so far, suggestion for vehicles or organization changes are welcome.

13th Armored Cavalry Regiment: TO and E

• Regimental Headquarters Troop

• 1st Squadron (Stingrays) (2 x Troops of 4 x Stingrays and 1 x Troop with 4 x M151 with TOW, and 1 x M577)
