The term garrison is mainly used in a military sense. A garrison unit is a unit that is garrisoned somewhere, usually a city or something similar (however, it could be a military fort, or other areas). For example, the 1st Battalion, 1st Infantry (U.S.) is garrisoned at West Point.
In the British Army, garrison is also used to refer to major military stations such as Aldershot, Catterick, Tidworth and London, which consist of more than one barracks or camp and have their own military headquarters, usually commanded by a Colonel, Brigadier or Major General, assisted by a Garrison Sergeant Major.
In Hebrew, the term garrison unit is translated as חיל מצב (cheil matzav), which is a regular unit defending a specified zone such as a city, a province, a castle or fortress, or even a single building.
