brigades חיר"ם
When I started reserves in 89, the Carmeli brigade was mostly made up of rovai07 Golani and Nachal soldiers with a sprinkling of ex-paratroops. Later Givati soldiers were added but I never heard of anyone from hermesh/hirmach.
I believe that this was true for most other
חיר"ם
brigades too.
In the last few years a trend has started where soldiers for reserve brigades will come from specific sadir battalions
51->Alexandroni
12->Oded
13->Carmeli
I believe that Alexandroni manpower has been almost exclusively ex-Golani since the 90s due to the type of APCs that they use. My estimate is that they are considered the top infantry brigade today. I have a friend who serves there (an ex-Nachal old timer) and they were the first reserve brigade unit called up north to Lebanon this summer (draft July 21/22) They were also called up during Chomat Magen in 2002 to prepare for possible fighting with Hizbolla
