I'm not sure where to put this, but I'll put it here anyway. So here's my problem:
a)I don't speak German at all and,
b)I have no clue how armies are organized.
So could someone make a list of formations, i.e Standarte--Regiment--X number of soldiers--etc,-- any other info you think is necessary. Of course, if not clear already, I'm asking for the formations of the SS, Luftwaffe, Heer...
Thank you in advance,
Besian
Army Formations
Here's the link to US army combat and administrative organisation.

This is the info for modern US army but you'll get the basic idea, I guess ...
Note that Standarte means Regiment and Abteilung is Battalion.
hope this helps, regards

Now will anyone care to help me solve the other half of the first problem (I don't speak German)? Can you tell me how to pronounce these nouns or at least tell me of any possible 'things' that might help in this direction.
