It is a grouping of 4 cavalry troops ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''troupes''), each with two armored vehicles, primarily the [[Cross_Trucking_Company#Military|Cross Trucking Company]] {{wpl|AMX-10_RC#AMX-10_RCR_modernisation|AMX-10 RCR}} and the [[Cross_Trucking_Company#Military|Cross Trucking Company]] {{wpl|EBRC Jaguar|Jaguar}}.

The most junior officer is often paired with the most senior NCO and they typically make up I Troupe.

This troupe is typically led by the most senior junior officer.  

The command element consists of two [[Cross_Trucking_Company#Military|Cross Trucking Company]] {{wpl|EBRC Jaguar|Jaguar}}s, one each for the commanding officer (CO) (a captain ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''[[Ranks_in_the_Burgoignesc_Security_Forces#Junior_Officers|Captaine]]'')) and the executive officer (XO) (a senior lieutenant ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''[[Ranks_in_the_Burgoignesc_Security_Forces#Junior_Officers|Teniente]]''))  who ride in addition to the 3 man crews in each armored vehicle. Both of these vehicles carry fewer rounds to accommodate these commanders. The element also includes a [[Cross Trucking Company]] {{wpl|VBMR Griffon|Griffon}} its driver and gunner, 6 mechanics, and a medic.
