Bullet example:<br /><br />o lead 13 vehicle recovery missions employing the battalion&#39;s principle recovery asset, resulting in zero casualties or safety incidents...<br /><br />I don&#39;t think it should be, and haven&#39;t found anything supporting that it should be in AR 25-50.

I think they are limited to Soldier, Veteran and Dependent.

Does not refer to a specific battalion.

Battalion, company, platoon, etc. used alone are not treated as proper nouns requiring capitalization yet I&#39;ve had my share of commanders and CSMs that said otherwise out of personal preference. I&#39;ve seen HRC accept both as long as it was consistent across the evaluation. According to standard English, they are not capitalized.
