I think having a battalion commander of a constituent battalion listed as commander is a mistake. The regiment hasn't had a commander since it ceased functioning as a regiment. Should this be fixed?

I would also like to propose that the history of the separate battalions in the ROAD, J-Series, and BCT eras be parsed out into separate articles with links in this regimental article (the reverse of the consolidation consensus detailed above with 3-41 IN).

A discussion of the regiment under the "New Manning System" of the Shy Myer era and into the 1980s until deactivation of 2 AD should be an element of the Regiment's history. Before undertaking such work, I'd like to know what others think? Bemcfarland (talk) 01:46, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The listing for the armored regiment that task organized with 3/41 during Desert Storm is incorrect. A 3/67 (not 66) was task organized with B&C 3/41 during Desert Storm. I was in 3rd Plt, A 3/67 and we were task organized with C 3/41. BTW, this was the largest company team deployed to combat since WW II. 214.3.17.37 (talk) 13:54, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decorations

Brolin222 thank-you for adding the decorations to the article. I was a bit surprised that you chose to include them as frameless without a caption. Is that a special form of markup usually used on military articles? Otherwise I think that it would be better to include them as normal images with captions. That would take more space but I think it would be more helpful to the reader – for a general reader like myself with very little military knowledge it's a bit hard to tell what they are currently.
