18 PISTOL PISTOL 1 3
19 RIFLE RIFLE 2 6
20 RADIO RADIO VHF 1 3

An important feature of the TOE is the total column. When

there are more than one subordinate unit of the same type –
such as 3 rifle platoons in a company – the total quantity for
the 3 platoons is provided in the Total Column.
For example the is one VHF Radio assigned to each platoon, so
there are 3 assigned in all three platoons.

Finally the TOE provides summary or “roll-up” information.

information or totals for each column.
For example there are 152 “All Ranks” in the company and 6
