There's a ton of them.

I won't further tangent the thread. But based on our numbers asymetrical and irregular warfare are our niche. As has often been the case in the past, I think the future is the same. 

Man these royal danish navy Frømandskorpset look legit in those veils. 

Only 1000 delta force in the world. That's something the Paanth could have. 1000 highly trained, mobilizable Singhs. Bhai Jagraj Singh Ji spoke about having a private military that could take contracts in conflict zones when not protecting the Paanth itself.

Misls began to slowly start acting as a private militia for certain territories where they would collect a fee from village chaudris  and then over time developed centres and capitals but still had very loose control over territories, that might be a reason why most common translation for a misl is "battalion". 

Similar to how decentralized khalsa raj was during period of Baba banda Singh as armed conflict and defense was main focus. So garrisons would be stationed at places like sirhind and samana etc. under certain subedars. I think Fateh Singh was subedar of sirhind if I remember correctly. Meanwhile Baba banda singh would operate most often in doaba or himachal with the central forces of khalsa.

This is a list of 35 singhs (panj mukte, and additional 30 listed who took pahul amongst which Bhai Mani Singh ji are first) after panj pyare singh sahiban 

Many names are recognized, as the 5 sons of Bhai Mani Singh ji, Bhai Chaupai Rai (I think is same one who Hazuri Rehitnama is creditted to and that rehitnama is said to have been drafted by the panj mukte) Bhai Ram Koer ji who I think was from lineage of Baba Budha Sahib ji, and I think there can be more stuff that can be found attributed to these personnel, as well as Deep Chand Sodhi, a cousin of Maharaj, the son of Baba Suraj Mal, grandson of Chheiven Paatshah maharaj. And theres Pandit Kirpaa Ram Datt, shaheed at Chamkaur di garhi and the head of kashmiri pandits who came with benti to Nauve Satguru Gareeb nivaaj 

Many of these were probably enrolled in Guru Maharajs personal elite guard of 25 hajuri singhs as well

while on the topic, can anyone confirm whether the five original nirmala were amritdhari or not

nowadays many chose not to become so and many do 

Seems like the answer to that would be yes since they were named singh and it is claimed that they were put under vision of pyare bhai daya singh ji and dharm singh ji 

Any thoughts on the bhai daya singh ji samparda lineage if it seems authentic as it goes down Baba sobha singh, Baba sahib singh ji kaladhari, Baba bhag singh, Baba bir singh ji naurangabad, bhai maharaj singh, sant karam singh hoti mardana following which it spread out into sant samaj deras as many of their followers are said to attained brahm vidya 

Any opinion on the lineage
