Ever was it thus. As has been said above, the ARRC only exists to provide the British Army with a 3-Star command position.
In Iraq we managed to employ a Div HQ to supervise a Bde HQ which, certainly on TELICs 12 and 13, managed to field just a single battle group (the MITT) and we still managed to have a 3-Star in Baghdad. It was ridiculous.
Op CHARGE OF THE KNIGHTS exposed our smoke and mirrors when the Yanks realised that having a Div HQ running the province did not mean there was a Div in the field. They could not take over and send us home quick enough after that.
