Distributions of the number of personnel per unit (e.g. regiment,

Using the distribution of personnel per regiment from Livermore's (1900) examples of regiment sizes, and the table of units in Eicher and Eicher (2002), this data is the distribution of personnel in each type of unit (company, regiment, brigade, division, corps, army, etc.).
See the `source <https://github.com/jrnold/acw_battle_data/blob/master/rawdata/unit_sizes/unit_sizes.Rmd>`__ for the details of how this data was simuated.
This data is used for estimates of strenghts in battles when the source gives only the number and types of units (e.g. :doc:`clodfelter_forces`, :doc:`cwsac_forces`, :doc:`cws2_forces`).
