The question is too vague. A "unit" can be defined as anything from a squad of 8 men to a Regiment or even a Division.

Very, very broadly speaking and using the British as a template;

4 men in a Brick

2 or 3 Bricks to a Section (Commanded by a Corporal)

3 Sections to a Platoon (Commanded by a Leiutenant)

3 or more Platoons in a Company (Commanded by a Major)

3 or more Companies in a Battallion (Commanded by a Leiutenant Colonel)

3 or more Battallions in a Brigade (Commanded by a Brigadier)

3 or more Brigades in a Division (Commanded by a 2-3* General)

x Divisions in a Corp (Commanded by a 3* General)

x Corps go to form an Army

Of course, the actual composition of any unit is defined by operational requirements, not to mention the number of personnel and equipment available.
