They take the fight to the enemy with the Captain, his Command Squad and their Sacred Standard anchoring the middle providing Fearless, the Assault Squad sweeping one flank in the company of the Interrogator-Chaplain, with the Dreadnoughts providing a back-up punch both for long range anti-tank, and counter-assault.

I'm not the biggest on DA tactics, but why do the assault based units have meltas? shouldn't the rest of the army take care of any tanks? (tacs and dreads)

...one amongst untold billions.

You mean the Company Veterans and the Command Squad? In part it's so that anyone trying to Tank Shock them gets a nasty surprised. It's also there so that the army doesn't have to rely on the Tacticals and Dreadnoughts for fire support, and so that they can do nasty things to stuff that might suffer from Instant Death with a Melta turned on them.

Basically it's because the army is very small and specialization will leave them open to a drubbing.

Speaking of, I'd switch out the Dreadnought and the Company Master's Lightening Claws for Whirlwinds, as an option.
