Troop strengths for most nations are classified. However, a comparable percentage of service members in the German Wehrmacht are infantrymen, comparable to other western nations that is. The make up of the German Army is similar to the American Army, just smaller; the jobs and duties are similar. Weapon systems are similar. Specific weapons may vary. I'm not certain about now, but in the '80's, the standard German combat rifle was chamberred for the heavier 7.62 NATO round, unlike American M16's that fired the .223. Much of their artillery is American. Their arcraft is mostly their own, however they have had American fighters in service in the past (F4's and F5's in the '80's again).

Is the us army third infantry regiment assigned to a division?

Not in WW2. Before 1939, each US Army Infantry Division had 4 infantry regiments. This proved to be too large for use on the battlefield. So the size the division was reduced and one regiment was removed. So the 3rd Infantry Regiment could have been part of a Division before then. However, during WW2 the 3rd Infantry Regiment was not part of an infantry division. Source: http://www.custermen.com/ItalyWW2/ArmyOrg/OrgChart/Divisions.htm


What was a runner in the infantry during World War 2?

A "runner" is a messenger. Not only in the infantry, but in any unit. The greatest runner in history (because of who he was, not because of his "runner" duties), was...believe it or not, ADOLPH HITLER during the First World War (previously known as the Great War). He was a Corporal (an enlisted man) in the Bavarian Army (part of the German Army).

Why are the U.S.S.R infantry on R.U.S.E produced so fast?

As the rusopedia explains the U.S.S.R infantry in that part of the war are numerious enlisted soldiers that are simpily given a gun which means they had hardly any training and support and because Russia is a massive country they had many many enlisties so that is why the infantry are produced fast and cheap, however they are the worst infantry. The infantry upgrade makes them the best infantry.
