As Jugus pointed out on the [[Talk:7 Charlie 40|''7 Charlie 40'' talk page]], I think it's likely that ''1 Alpha 3'' is an individual trooper, not a unit. Corporal Travis is designated ''3 Charlie 6'', as he is the sixth member of ''3 Charlie''. Perhaps the first number designates the trooper's company, the phonetic identifier designates his platoon, and the second number shows his position within the platoon. I'd say it's the same case with ''1 Alpha 3''. Does anyone agree? --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 20:02, 24 November 2010 (EST)

:Yes, there are several such articles. For example: [[7 Delta 19]]. There are also designations such as [[Oscar 18]] and [[Delta 15]]. Should these be considered units or individuals?

::Other examples of the number - phonetic designator - number system include [[3 Echo 57]] and [[4 Charlie 27]]. I'm not sure whether to think Oscar 18 and Delta 15 are units or individuals, however. Let's see if anyone else has opinions. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|&quot;Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have.&quot; -Thomas Jefferson]] 20:14, 24 November 2010 (EST)
