BG Dick Potter was talking about a 4th BN back in '84 when he was the 10th GRP CDR.
He wantd them to be viewed as an independant brigade and the CDR would be an 07 slot.
In late 2007 the 45th Infantry Brigade (OK NG) showed up in Iraq - commanded by a BG. The other brigade CDRs were O6s - they were not pleased.
Since GO slots are regulated by Congress I doubt that this will happen any time soon. But I'm sure the SF higher-ups are planning for more 07 slots in the future. They are just laying the ground work.
