I went to BN with a guy that had a brother in another company who was a SSG. He always got smoked more because his team leader thought he was getting special treatment from his brother.

There where two brothers in 2nd Batt. during my time frame, but they kept them apart by having them in different companies.

Not sure if there is S.O.P. or reg on this issue.

We had twins in our company. They were in the same platoon for a while, but after a couple of weeks one of 'em went to another platoon. That was right around the 2000 timeframe, I don't know if the regs have changed.
