Thanks Cougar! I am away on business and access to this forum is spotty, so I wasn't able to post the JSGME versions you sent me.
Has anybody been playing with these? Any comments?

Thanks guys.
The one I'm playing with now has larger Symbols for the Plt Leaders (Platoon ID), which allows you to spot and identify your Platoons even if pretty far across the map. I also down sized the Platoon member symbols so you know where the units are located, but they don't interfere with your vision as much nor do they battle the main symbols for visual dominance.
I'll post it if there is any interest.
Examples:
