Overview
In January 2008, the Long War Journal published the first known post-Taliban Order of Battle (OOB) for Afghanistan. The OOB was created from open-source documents such as official press briefings, official reports and news articles. Data included both macro- (overall size and structure) and micro(individual unit) levels. Criteria for data inclusion was: Consistency with the structure of known military organizations, and Internal consistency between macro- and micro-level data. According to the author: Sources used were generally considered reliable, and official reports were used heavily. Most data points had multiple data sources. Macro- and micro-level data are generally consistent. The OOB is consistent with the general structure of known military organizations. Data were collected over time, so some lag and inconsistencies are unavoidable.
