British Infantry Battalion structure was...
3-4 Infantry companies of 3 Rifle platoons each
1 Pioneer platoon of 1 Pioneer section and 2 Assault Pioneer sections
1 Scout platoon of 4 Scout patrols of 3 Carriers each
1 Anti-tank platoon of 4 OQF 6 pounders
1 Mortar platoon of 3 sections of 2 Mortar teams each

I think I'm missing one more platoon here.

Machine-guns (Dismounted and carrier-mounted), as well as Heavy Mortars, were
concentrated in a divisional level battalion that was parceled out as needed to
the Infantry.

Royal Engineers, Royal Artillery, Royal Artillery Anti-tank (M10s and OQF 17
pounders), Recce (Humber armoured cars), and Light Anti-aircraft (Bofors) were
in separate battalions at divisional level also. Everything else was attached
from outside the division.

Infantry from a Motor Battalion in an Armoured Division are again different.
Cover that later.

Here's a quick breakdown I've gathered from other non-web sources:

US
Ammunition & Pioneer squad (1 M3, 7 Garand)
Combat Engineer squad (Truck or Half-track or Glider/Parachute) (1 M3, 8 Garand,
1 Bazooka)

Rifle Battalion

Machine Gun Platoon
• 4 .30 cal Machine Guns
• 4 Transport trucks
• 2 Bazookas

Mortar Platoon
• 6 81mm Mortars
• Paired up, 3 groups of 2
• 2 bazooka's
• 3 Transport trucks

Anti-Tank Platoon
• Not sure what this means: "Its three squads each served a single 57-mm
antitank Gun" does than mean there was ONE AT gun between 3 squads or was there
3 AT guns?
• 10 men per gun! I think 4 max for CoH
• 3 Transport trucks, one with a .50cal
• 1 Bazooka

Rifle Company/Platoon
• 3 Squads of 12 men
o Leader and assistant leader
o 3 men --> BAR gunner, observer and ammo bearer.
o 7 are the assault team, 2 of whom are designated scouts.
o Scouts join the assault team when attacking.
• 1 designated sniper per platoon/Company
• 1 radio man
• 3 light 60mm mortars
5 Barzookas

British
