Allied armoured formations given above show unit designations for armour, infantry, and artillery components. The armour sub units in the DCRs were demibrigades. DLMs and DLCs had cavalry regiments those in parenthesis being reconnaissance regiments. The British Division was made up of brigades and regiments. French battalions were B.C.C. in the DCRs and groupes in the cavalry units. Infantry were dragons portes in cavalry units, chasseurs portes in the DCR. Two other DLMs, the 4th and 7th, were formed in June. The former came from elements of DLC 1, the latter from DLC 4. The 6th DLC was stationed in North Africa.
