   Platoon wedge formation could be arranged if you were using the Groovatron and only taking pictures. But as for a mod.. I'm not so sure. I don't think Bethesda originally planed for us to have an entire infantry squad accompany you everywhere.

      On one hand, you have a point. On the other hand, Bethesda didn't plan for us to be able to turn Mothership Zeta into the main HQ of the player's own army either.
      
      For what it's worth, I am able to arrange squads into a formation by using console commands (I disabled AI with "tai" and placed the soldiers with moveto/setangle), for the purpose of taking pictures.

      True, it's unfortunate Bethesda didn't have Arma 3's engine in mind when creating the Fallout series.
      
      Here's how Imperial Infantry formations are arranged on the battlefield.

      The one you're doing looks like a "Line Formation" and I think mine is considered a "Platoon Wedge Formation".
      
      The Line formation was commonly used back in the American Civil War, and the American Revolutionary War.
