To the individual who stated in (article 1859) that Airborne unit's received 

desg.of numbers at and above 500. Please explain the following errors.

	 A) 1st and 2nd of the 75th Ranger Battalion - Airborne (still active)

	 B) All WW2 Glider/Airborne Batt. 300 ser.

	 C) 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, Batt. of the 325th (still active)
	 
	 D) 1st, 5th, 7th, 12th, Group Special Forces (still active)

PLEASE DON'T TRY TO FIGURE OUT THE LOGIC USED IN THIS SYSTEM.......
some desk bound poge could see this and use a reorg. to kiss up to the
chain of command.

     remember   MILITARY / INTELEGENCE (sp) they don't fit together.
