In this history documentary we explore the True Size of a US Army Rifle Company as it was defined in the June 30 1944 Table of Organization. We begin with a look at the basic soldiers who made up this force. We then begin to organize them into squads, platoons, weapons sections, and a company. The 3D documentary then explored the US army tactics for a rifle company. This is done with a theoretical attack upon an enemy position followed by the formation of a defensive line.
