An armored division typically consists of around 10,000 to 15,000 troops, though the exact number can vary depending on the country and specific organizational structure. It generally includes a mix of armored, mechanized infantry, and support units, designed for combined arms operations. The division is structured to maximize mobility and firepower, often featuring a significant number of tanks and armored vehicles.

What was the chain of command of US 19th Armored Division during World War 2?

I don't know how many of the first 20 armored division were organized in time to participate in World War 2, but I do not find any reference to the US 19th Armored Division. Also, checked a Department of Army manual used to establish credit for campaign ribbons and it does not list the 19th Armored Division. There was a 19th Armored Battalion of the 14th Armored Division, which saw service with the 7th ARMY in these campaigns: (1) Ardennes-Alsace, (2) Central Europe and (3)Rhineland.

Two or more, but usually three, brigades equalled one division. US Marine Corps tank battalions (in Vietnam) were organized the same as the Army's. Only Army & Marine tank "Battalions" were in Vietnam; as well as armored cavalry squadrons, which were the equivalent of battalions (but contained far more armored vehicles in their troops (companies are called "Troops" in the cavalry). With the one exception of the 11th ACR (Armored Cavalry Regiment) which, in the cavalry is equivalent to a brigade. In Vietnam, the 11th ACR was commanded by COL. George S. Patton, son of WW2 Gen Patton.

How many tanks in a modern us army armoured division?

The United States Army is currently reorganizing around the Brigade as the largest permanent flexible unit of combat force, and the division is much less fixed. Indeed, the idea is that divisions will be amalgamations of standing Brigades (usually 2-4) plus additional support services. In the interim, US Divisions are being redesigned to be able to deploy independent brigades. A rough estimate of a current full armored division is the composition of the US 1st Armored Division, which is comprised of 4 Brigade Combat Teams, totaling 4 tank battalions and 3 armored cavalry battalions. A tank battalion has 3 companies, each of roughly 14 tanks. Armored Cavalry battalions generally have half as many tanks. So, a good estimate would be that the 1st Armored Division has about 250 tanks. Historically, it is very hard to answer this question, as it depends heavily on which period of time you are talking about - the size and composition of US armored divisions has varied considerably over the past 70 years.

It was dependent on many factors, but probably somewhere between 100 and 200. As the war dragged on and turned against Germany, panzer divisions were seldom up to their intended number of tanks.
