Does anyone know how many troops in a typical infantry Battalion in this world? I guess 100 to 500. I can see the Russians having a bigger Battalion unit then the United States :P

So, if all units are exactly at standard size, they'll look something like this...
Platoon: 4 squads of 8 men each = 32 men (+ a couple of sergeants & an officer - usually a lieutenant)
Company: 4 platoons of 32 men each = 128 men (the company commander is usually a captain)
Battallion: 4 companies of 128 = 512 men (usually commanded by a major)
