I've tried looking on the net for a few answers to the following with next to no luck, I hope someone can help please ?
1) Who would be in Command of a) a Platoon, b) a Company, c) a Battalion ?
2) Or to tie in with my question above what would the following junior officers/NCO/Field Officers actually be in command of ?
Gefreiter
Obergefreiter
Unteroffizier
Oberfeldwebel
Leutnant
Oberleutnant
Hauptmann
Major
Oberstleutnant
Oberst
These might well be simple questions but im struggling to find any definative answers.
Any help appreciated.

a company:normally a captain,some times a lieutenant
a platoon :normally a lieutenant ,some times a NCO=an oberfeldwebel,unteroffizier,...
There are no definitive answers:all is depending from the circumstances .(a colonel could-temporarily- command a division)
