In High Command mission, how do I name groups?

[arthur666 10]

... so that I can tell which group is which? Example - I have three 4-man fire teams under my command. I want to know which one is the heavy AT group at a glance. The icons at the bottom of the screen all look the same. Is there a way to name them? Give them different colors other than blue at least?

hcSetGroup That allows you to assign each team one of a few different colors. It won't change their marker color but it will change their number to a different color at the bottom of the screen I think.

You can add a code into the initialization line of every group leader (in this case a fireteam leader) to give all of his grouped units a specific name.

name setGroupID ["put your callsign of choice here"];

So if you use the callsign "ECHO", each unit which has been grouped to the group leader, will be called "ECHO" starting with the leader as ECHO 1, the next higher ranked unit as ECHO 2, ECHO 3, ECHO 4 and so on.
