== Army (Soviet Army) == 

 Hi Buckshot06, 

 I removed the request for the cite. I should have just brought it up here, and I don't care for the way that asking for a cite places an article into the "unsourced statements" category, as if the article is asserting that unicorns have just taken power in Tanna Tuva. Sorry about that. 

 On the topic of the article, I think it is very valid.  The comments on the talk page miss the mark because army and corps structure, in WWII at least, were considerably different among the combatants, and considerably so when one considers the military organization of the USSR. A comparison of various high field command organizations might be a good topic for Wiki. 

 On this topic, one idea I've had for a while now is that the often-used comparison of a Soviet army to a western (or German) corps is at best tenuous.  There may be similarity in terms of manpower totals, but from what I can tell, the Soviet army seems to have the bulk of its troops in combat formations while a western corps has the bulk of its troops in the logistical "tail". I'd be interested in your thoughts on this. 

 I was glad to see your article mention the return of the rifle corps as a command echelon, as many comment that the Red Army abandoned the use of rifle corps in 1941 and never re-instituted them.  I have to dig into the Soviet OOB someday and see precisely when they re-emerge, and I also suspect the armies not engaged against the Germans kept their rifle corps HQ throughout the war. 

 Cheers,
