Ok it took me awhile but i found my field manual with the U.S. unit breakdowns in it.

Turns out the Army was nearly finished equipping is units with M1s and M3s by 1983 so this unit may or may not have access to them depending on how many are in reserve in 1984.
the M60A4s and M113 ACAVs are the units they replaced as stated earlier.
