    e.  Major Changes.
        (1)  Removed the Message Center in the Retrans
Section because it is replaced by modernized equipment in all
units.  Coordinated with Armor School and National Guard
Bureau.  This resulted in removing 5 personnel positions, 3
HMMWVs, and message center equipment from the base TOE.
        (2)  Removed WO position, MOS 550A0, in SJA Section
because this regiment does not have court martial
jurisdiction.  Coordinated with SJA and Armor School.
        (3)  Removed the ambulance from the Troop HQs and
created new paragraph.  Coordinated with Medical Center and
Armor School.

2.  EMPLOYMENT.
    a.  The Headquarters and Headquarters Troop (HHT)
operates as a tactical and administrative headquarters for
the Armored Cavalry Regiment.  The ACR is a self-contained
combined arms organization that supports the corps or joint
task force.  It operates independently over a wide area and
at extended distances from other units.  The HHT supports the
functions of command, control, and supervision of operating
elements.  Elements of the headquarters operate the
communications center, personnel services for the regiment,
logistical services, maintenance support, mess facility,
medical evacuation and support services.  These elements are
