Knock it off with assaulting men, Siege.  It's unseemly, and not very sporting.

I don't understand how the 1st division of something can lose a 1st brigade. Wouldn't that just make the 2nd the new 1st?

JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, Wash.
The home of the Army's 1st Corps, whose operational focus is the Korean peninsula, will lose the 4th Stryker Brigade of the 2nd Infantry Division.

Siege?

He's a screaming beagle.

I'm at Ft Campbell with the Rakkasans now, 3 BDE/101 ABN, but I was at Ft Lewis with the Raiders, 4 BDE/2 ID.

Yes, and it was glorious.

Suck my dick, faggot.

Ganging up on one guy is not fair.
Why don't we get back on topic?

Not really.
Every division have a 1st BDE, a 2nd, and so on.
What is not in order are the battalions. I am in 3-187, meaning 3rd Battalion from the 187th Regiment, but there are no infantry regiments in the army anymore, so Battalions belong to regiments for historical geneology only.

My brigade, 3BDE, have 3 combat Battalions (1 cavalry and 2 infantry) and a Brigade Support Battalion or BSB.

Majority of Military Sexual Assault Victims Are Men

Considering how many women are being sexually assaulted that is an impressive feat.  Ah military why are you so rapey?

They like other men to suck their dicks so that they can claim not to be a faggot.  Or something like that.  Its sometimes hard to follow what Siege might be thinking.
