A brigade is military unit consisting of a variable number of combat battalions or regiments.
The typical NATO standard brigade consists of approximately 4,000 to 5,000 troops, but the number of men in a brigade is not specified or fixed.
This would depend on the type of Brigade you are talking about. For Example: A Field Artillery Brigade would consist of two to five battalions. The 17th FA Brigade compliment was three battalions of 155mm M109s, One Lance Battalion and a HQ Battalion. Total number of men 2500. The calvary Brigade is of a similar size. Although Infrantry and Armor (Cavalry) are typically Regiments, they have been called Brigades and have been as large as 5000.

A US Army Mechanized Infantry battalion had about 900 men assigned to it. Two or more battalions make up a (US Army) brigade. The 1st Avn Bde very well could have had in excess of 2,000 men assigned to it.
