It depends on your definition of "large". The biggest seen in WWII were army groups, made up of two more more field armies, with hundreds of thousands of troops. A field army has two or more corps in it, and might have 75,000 to 300,000 men. A corps has two or more divisions in it, and might have from 40,000 to 120,000, roughly. A division has three regiments (or brigades) in it, and might have 10-15,000. A US regiment in WWII had about 3300 men, and had three battalions in it. A battalion had three rifle companies, plus a heavy weapons company, a total of about 850 men. A company (in the US) had about 225 men when the war started; later, the table of organization changed and a company had 187 men when it was at full strength at the end. A company had four platoons, each with around 40-50 men. Each platoon had four squads, each with about 12 men.
