How many troops in a batillion?

Answer 1

I shall presume you mean a battalion.

In the U.S. Army, battalion sizes vary, depending primarily on whether they are infantry, armor, airborne, etc. A battalion is two OR MORE company-sized units, and generally varies anywhere from 300 to 1,000 personnel.

That varies a lot according to the organization. I used to be in a Field Artillery battalion and it had about 500 soldiers. I've been is a logistical support battalion that had around 800 soldiers. I know of a logistics support battalion in Iraq that had ten companies assigned to it with around 1,200 soldiers which is much more than what doctrine recommends.
