Does anyone know why this unit shows '5th/7th Army' above 7th Army HQ?

'5th/7th Army' is the formation name. 'HQ Seventh Army' is the unit name. I would guess that rather then create separate formations, the scenario designer combined the two into one [formation].

US 7th Army conquered Sicily, then moved to southern France. US 5th Army conquered NW Africa, then after Sicily it landed in Italy and fought there for the rest of the war.
