peer agreement (net): +2| march battalion a provisional unit made up of companies from various battalions Explanation: When there have been heavy losses, a provisional unit will be formed, which is made up of companies from various battalions. While this provisional unit is marching to relieve the Infantry Division, it is given a designation of March Battalion (in this case the 1003rd March Battalion) so they will have a command structure during the march.
