Field forces are composed of headquarters, usually made up of multiple divisions or control at least one corps.

Field forces are commanded by a general or lieutenant general.[6][7]

9 CORPS MARK

It is a tactical unit unit in the middle of a field army and a division. The minimum basic size of the armed forces in a country of some size other than the state of affairs or state of affairs is one corps. The commanding officer of the corps is usually the lieutenant general, and sometimes the general is in charge when the situation is not favorable. It consists of at least two divisions, with an average of 20,000 to 40,000 troops.[8]

7 Division mark

Division

It is one of the units of troops in the military, a military organization larger than the regiment or brigade and smaller than the corps, and a top-level unit of the Imperial Compilation Unit. No regulations are drawn up from above the corps.[9]

Brigade

One of the arrangements of the military organization, the size is larger than the regiment and smaller than the division. The commander is a brigadier general or colonel. In the 21st century, the concept of independent brigades has reappeared and is widely used around the world as a major tactical discharge organization along with the concept of division. The infantry brigade consists of 3,000 to 5,000 troops.[10]

Regiment

The regiment is about 3,000 people. A colonel is usually appointed as a regimental commander, but in some cases a lieutenant colonel is appointed. The regiment is still the largest unit of troops, consisting of one unit, including infantry / artillery / armour / engineer. However, this concept faded as several military departments were mixed up within the regiment. In the modern army, several separate regiments are gathered to form a division, and the infantry and armoured regiments, the main focus of the division, are supported by other soldiers and units within the same division.[11]

Battalion

A system larger than a major and smaller than a regiment or regiment. When describing a battalion, it is called batalion in the army infantry and squadron in the cavalry and air force. The battalion's commanders are usually major or lieutenant colonel and usually have 300 to 1,000 (or 800) troops and an average of around 500. In the case of the Republic of Korea Armed Forces, a lieutenant colonel is usually in charge, while in the case of the local division or the Air Force, a major is also in charge of the battalion.[12]

Company

It is a unit arrangement that is larger than a platoon and smaller than a platoon. It is the last unit of discharge that functions within a military organization. Therefore, the recognition of command authority is not given, but the company acknowledges it.[13]

Platoon

As a unit of organization of troops, it is larger than a squad and smaller than a major unit. Originally, it was the largest unit with no officers, but in order to develop the command and leadership capabilities of the newly commissioned so-called officers, it was first assigned to a platoon commander and promoted to a company commander. Usually, it consists of three divisions and a platoon headquarters (a platoon leader and a platoon leader, a machine gunner and a noncommissioned officer, and a communications soldier).[14]
