Editing Platoon (section)

==Georgia==
The [[Defense Forces of Georgia|Georgian Armed Forces]] equivalent of the platoon is the '''''ozeuli'''''. Translated, it means "Group of 20" but has no connection with the number. It has been transferred into modern usage from medieval army reforms of the Georgian King [[David IV of Georgia|David the Builder]]. Originally, it was meant to be a small detachment of 20 men to be led by a leader of corresponding rank. Almost all smaller formations are based on the designations of those reforms, which originally suggested tactical flexibility by keeping the size of small units in round numbers (10, 20, 100). [[Battalion]]s and [[brigade]]s were not affected by that system. It is unknown whether that usage was abandoned in the 1820s or earlier, but in present days a Georgian platoon still called "Ozeuili" has a similar size to that of other armies. Normally for infantry it has 32 men but can vary depending on the type of unit.
