Is that the European arrangement?

Here's standard US Army/Marine Corps organization...
Fire Team = Corporal
Squad = Sergeant
Platoon = 2nd Lt-1st Lt
Company = Captain
Batallion = Major-Lt.Col
Regiment = Colonel
Brigade = Brigadier General
Division = Major General
Corps = Lt General (Army) General (Marines)
Army = General

Air side for Marines
Flight = Captain
Squadron = Lt. Col
Group = Colonel
Wing = Major General
