Oops ... you're correct, you need to use ScenHack NOT the editor to alter formation types.

Typically the XO and 1st Sgt are not out in the field, they're in the rear insuring ammo, food, mail, and replacements get to wherever the company happens to be physically located in the field.

I tend to use a 6 man Co HQ section, CO, Co Gy, 2x Radioman (1 to the platoons the other to battalion), and a couple miscellaneous types (corpsman, runners, whatever).

You might want to look at the number of sniper teams you're giving them. In 1993 the Sniper Platoon was changed to be 9 teams, thus three would theoretically be available to each line company (two would be more realistic however as the do have missions other then infantry support to contend with).
