US Armored Rifle Platoon
""If we don't know what we're doing, the enemy certainly can't anticipate our actions!"
- – Anonymous Soldier
The Armored Rifle Company was a component of the Armored Infantry battalion that fought alongside mechanized elements of the United States army during WW2. In contrast to the regular Rifle Company, the Armored rifles were near purely transported in M3 Halftracks in order to keep up with their support element.
