Chapter 2
2-1. Combat Organization
The 25th Infantry Division combat structure falls inline with the United States Army layout, specifically the Modified
Table Of Organization & Equipment (MTOE) of a Light Infantry Company. We have modified this layout to best
suit our needs, which enables us to bring an organized. realistic and functioning structure whilst retaining flexibility
and fitting the needs of the unit.

2-2. Staff Organization

The 25th Infantry Division also retains a set of non-combat Staff Shops which provide the unit with its
administration, technical, planning and training cells to best provide us with the specialty roles that are required to
run the unit.

All staff roles are secondary billets, that being that they are filled by soldiers who already maintain a combat role
within the unit and conduct additional work within the administrative side of the unit. The only exception to this is
the Shop NCOIC’s and Headquarters OIC who can be run as either primary or secondary billets.

Each role has a specific role that they provide the unit. Below are the descriptions of each role within the unit and
what their job entails.
