: But you don't use the word "survived" when
: referring to armies. You could say "barely
: remained intact", but to use the word
: "survived" usually means you're talking
: about a person (or a race) rather than an organisation
: or force (and exen with a race, you'd normally say
: "barely escaped extinction" rather than
: "barely survived").
: Martel.

"...the remains of the once mighty Heron Guard barely survived the Great War..."
You -might- say that, although I agree that usually you wouldn't.
