Parent Formation for Large Mercenary Units/Brigades

There are several brigade-sized mercenary units and I don't see a way (in the infobox) to tie the individual regiments to the brigade, as with the parent formation line for state units: Help:CreateCommandArticle. Am I missing a template somewhere? If not, can this be added? Examples are the Northwind Highlanders, Wolf's Dragoons, 12th Star Guards, and 12th Vegan Rangers. If you're on the individual sub-unit/regiment pages, there is no prominent link to lead you to the parent unit.--Cache (talk) 18:01, 22 March 2019 (EDT)
