<sod>The regiment was formed into four company-sized units called Commandos: One, Two, Three and Support Commando (each with ± 100 men). As a premise, a Commando could have five [[troop]]s; be that as it may, only four troops in each commando were ever activated (i.e. 5 Troop, 10 Troop and 15 Troop were never activated). Consistently, one of the troops was away on [[R&R (military)]] so the average fighting strength of each Commando was just over 70 men.  The troops were either divided into two 'patrols' or three 'sections' plus a headquarters, depending on the deployment. Prior to 1977 Support Commando had been called Support Group.<eod>
