I am a veteran of World War II and remember squads, battalions, companies, divisions and regiments but don't recall the brigade. I am merely interested in how much things have changed, and what the chain of command structure looks like now. According to http://usmilitary.about.com/od/army/l/blchancommand.htm the US Army Brigade is comprised of 3,000 to 5,000 individuals. The regimental designation is no longer in use.

The US Marine Corps still uses the regiment. It is comprised of 3 battalions. See http://usmilitary.about.com/od/marines/a/command.htm

Why does a brigade support battalion exist?

With the high mobility of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Army needed to make brigades as independent as possible, rather than moving entire divisions as a single unit. By expanding brigades with their own support and multi-branch combat battalions, they could be deployed as a unit without need for further support or attached units. Thus, what was called a Brigade is now called a BCT - Brigade Combat Team.
