[QUOTE="Bastard TwoTwo, post: 859165, member: 71841"] Believe it or not, that wasn't the only reason. In late '06, they added an additional 4th Battalion to every SF Group, which necessitated a new numbering system. I don't know how long they'll keep it that way before returning to the 3 Battalion format, if they ever return to it. It really was a headache trying to bridge the gap; one week the team number is (for instance) 095, and the next week it's 1054. Completely rearranged everything! Hated it. For those uninitiated who may read this, the original Special Forces Team number format worked like this: 1, 3, 5, 7, and 0 (for 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 10th Groups) followed by 0-3 (A,B,C/1st Bn), 4-6 (A,B,C/2nd Bn), 7-9 (A,B,C/3rd Bn) followed by 0-9, designating the specific team within the previously established Company, Battalion, and Group. So 3rd Team, B Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Group is/was: [B]ODA 153[/B] [/QUOTE]
