5 similarly structured stanzas, all end "... 6 hundred" - stanza 3 and stanza 5 very similar. Emphasise the contrast between the number going in and the number coming out - exemplify the perfect soldier, one who obeys orders without question even to their own death.
Final stanza deliberately different(short) in order to emphasise the message of the poem - to honour ad remember the light brigade.
