Best Answer

During the Vietnam War, a "US Army" regiment was generally equal to a brigade. Regiments (in the US Army) were normally reserved for US Cavalry units; such as the 11th ACR (Armored Cavalry Regiment), which was commanded by Colonel George S. Patton Jr. in Vietnam (son of WWII GENERAL PATTON). In the US Army (during Vietnam) a Battalion was approximately 600 men (but could be up to 900 men); in the Cavalry a "Battalion" was called a Squadron, and two or more squadrons equalled a Regiment. Two or more battalions equalled a brigade.
