Depends on how big the group is, I will start with smallest. Squad, Platoon, Company, Battalion, regiment, division

The smallest group is called a fire team which is 4 or 5 soldiers, a normal squad is about 10 soldiers, a platoon is usually 4 squads plus a platoon leader and a platoon sgt, a company usually is made up of at least 4 platoons plus a company commander and a 1st sgt, a battalion is at least three companys. The number of soldiers also mya change upon their primary use, weapons, infantry, MP and such.
