What are you wanting to know about them? General info type stuff? Or is there someone you're checking up on?

CAG- in Iraq-civic affairs groups
CAG- in RVN-combined action groups
two different entities and im sure makeup
in RVN we were 14 man platoons(including corpsman)we had no officers,all enlisted and had PF's and RF's with us,depending on the makeup of your village or TAO.we ran ambushes every night,day patrols from our day havens(where we set up during the day)
the new Iraq CAG's were brought back into being by Gen.Mattis,1st MEF.i think they are led by officers,do a lot of training of Iraq soldiers,have even run some bootcamps im told-thats my take anyway.
