77 Brigade – Formed during 2015 this Brigade brings together the following units under one headquarters:

15 Psychological Operations Group (15 POG) - Psychological Warfare.

Military Stabilisation Support Group (MSSG) - Stabilisation and Conflict Prevention.

Media Operations Group (MOG) - Media Operations.

Security Capacity Building Team (SCBT) - Military Capacity Building.

We are still trying to identify 77 Brigade’s location in the chain-of-command and it is possible that it comes under the overall command of Force Troops Command.
