Whilst browsing I found this and wondered what you meant by "S" designations. I saw what you meant once I opened the topic.
I was, of course, hurt by the fact that you don't have S-6 represented. Just remember, the three pillars of a functioning unit are to shoot, move, and communicate! Can't do much of the first two without the third!! ![]()
Something else one might hear is "G" sections. These are for Division sized units and up (commanded by a general [thus "G"]). I work in the G-6 (communications) section for II MEF.
Something that is a little more recent in nature (I believe) is the "J" designator. They correspond to the meanings of the S and G sections, but are the designations for joint commands (composed of individuals from multiple service branches.)
