This article is all very speculative and uncertain– i.e. "Sometime after the publishing", "soon became the 1st Intelligence and Surveillance Brigade"; there's not many actually given dates. Also the sources provided don't support either of the claims that the Brigade was formed in 1997 and disbanded in 2014. – SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 ( Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 15:00, 30 April 2021 (UTC) reply

Dear Peacemaker67 I have just removed the sentence "..new force was an administrative formation rather then an operational formation" from this article. This just demonstrates *again* that J-Man11 does not have the Wikipedia:Competence is required to edit military articles, at the very least after 1900, where this user continues to try and utilize widely available WP:PRIMARYSOURCES. This ad-hoc, not administrative formation, during the 1980s, would have been under a brigadier controlling the armoured reconnaissance regiments of I(BR) Corps facing multiple motor rifle & tank division first echelons of 3 Red Banner Army (' 3rd Shock Army') and possible East German MD III / (3rd Army?). Not *administrative,* rather right on the very sharp end!! This user does not fully understand the terms or organisations they are using. In addition, I have had to correct several references to the 1999 SOHB and remove unsourced material. Would you kindly indicate to me please whether I should restart the WP:AN I raised several weeks ago? This user continues to edit post-1900 articles. Buckshot06 (talk) 16:41, 4 July 2021 (UTC) reply
