Given the Task Organization of 1-37 Armor during the last JMRC
rotation (the former CMTC, now renamed to the Joint Multinational
Readiness Center, four buzzwords for the price of one), a two-platoon
company is downright normal looking.

At one point our task org was a single line platoon of combat
engineers, and hybrid "tank" platoon that was operating with 2 tanks
and two uparmored HMMWVs (each carrying the four tanks that would have
been in the other two).  At another point we cross-attached squads
within platoons, creating platoons with two tanks and 2 M-113s, with
dismounts.
