Here is mine (I will be using the military structure that was used during Turner's reign, as it is pretty much identical to the one used by the Orson Federation):

The most basic unit in the Imperial Military is the platoon (often nicknamed a "toon" by Imperial soldiers), which consists of 20 soldiers. Next unit is a company, which consists of 5 platoons (100 soldiers). Next is a battalion, which consists of 10 companies (1,000 soldiers). Next is a division, which consists of 10 battalions (10,000 soldiers). Next is a legion, which consists of 10 divisions (100,000 soldiers).

Legions can further be organized into army groups, which are generally used during massive campaigns. For example, the largest army group ever assembled was Army Group A, which invaded the SRA during the 3rd SRA-Orson War.

It is the standard of what you would think most armies would have:

SMALLEST TO LARGEST:
Squad(12-15 men), Platoon(30-60 men), Company(100-200 men), Battalion(500-800 men), Regiment(1200-2000 men), Brigade(3000-6000 men), Division(10,000-30,000 men), Field Army(50,000+, being the largest unit in our army).
