What are the sizes of Section/Platoon, Squads and fireteams in the PA and how are they distributed?
I remember the show “We are Soldiers” by wajahat Saeed khan covered this but I can’t seem to find it.
if I recall correct a squad in the PA has 13 soldiers? If so what is the division into fireteams?

Wonder what happens to the two courses which are essentially skipped when such extensions are given?
Are folks with hypothetically better merit and better leadership basically lost to retirement?

Nothing against the current chief but technically you could have the next Guderian, Gustav the great or Hannibal but they just end up retired?

Although I suppose that they would have had the chance to display that during their service.

I never favor extension. And also prefer that senior most officer in line be selected when it's time to pick (if he made to a 3 star general, he is good enough). The 3 year extension with selling security sitiation reason is bs. at most, 6 months to a year should have been given. Even in war, only 2 months extension is given by law.

If one was soo/thoroughly professional, IMO, that person would decline any offer for extension. Anyways, it is what it is.
