That's only two platoons, a command element, and a pair of support
vehicles (My company teams generally have two tubes, but then again I
worship at the altar of the Holy Smoke).  APCs don't count as a seperate
platoon.  It's a short company, which is a perfectly valid, but somewhat
unusual situation unless a unit is badly shot up.
