+A '''division''' is a large military unit of the [[United Nations Space Command]], organized by the [[Unified Ground Command]] to structure forces of the [[UNSC Army]] and [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine Corps]].<ref name="enc55">''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'', p. 55 (2011)</ref>
-A '''Division''' is a large [[UNSC Military Organization]] of [[UNSC]] soldiers. It is unclear if UNSC forces have continued to follow the same battle order scheme for Divisions as it has for [[Company|Companies]], [[Battalion|Battalion]]s, [[Platoons]], and [[Squad|Squads]]/[[Fire Teams]]. But this appears to be the case. If so, Divisions would probably number around 12,000 to 25,000 soldiers.
+==Organization==
+A division is composed of three [[regiment]]s or [[brigade]]s, as well as a "Division Headquarters Section", ideally totaling to approximately 14,000 personnel. The additional personnel in the force number given are support units, including medical, [[combat engineer]]ing, maintenance, and [[military police]]. Divisions are typically commanded by a [[brigadier general]] or, occasionally, a [[major general]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc55}} As part of their command career path, [[master sergeant]]s have administrative responsibilities within a division, while [[sergeant major]]s serve as assistant commanders within a division.<ref>''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', p. 143</ref> The [[UNSC Army]] fields [[UNSC Army airborne|airborne]], armored, and infantry divisions, while the [[UNSC Marine Corps]] fields marine and reconnaissance divisions.<ref name="hsa">''[[Halo: Spartan Assault]]'', ''[[Halo: Spartan Assault/Quotes|Quotes]]''</ref>
-Judging from a comment from [[Lord Hood]], there are no less than five Divisions of special forces [[ODST]]s in existence,<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 104</ref> which likely puts the total number of [[UNSC Marine Corps]] divisions at a much larger number. It is unknown how many Divisions the [[UNSC Army]] is comprised of also.
+Judging from a comment from [[Fleet Admiral]] Lord [[Terrence Hood]], there are no less than four divisions of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s in existence,<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', p. 104</ref> including the [[65th Shock Troops Division|65th]] and the [[105th Shock Troops Division]]s.<ref name="lootcrate2">''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]'', [[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]</ref><ref name="enc59">''Halo Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Halo Universe'', p. 59 (2011)</ref>
