Organizational Charts

[Walt's Daughter]

Ah that is such a fact. I know that company, battalion, platoon and squad numbers were drastically down especially just prior to the Battle of Bulge and all during that campaign. Many experiencing half to three-quarters of their full-strength at times. Pretty scary stats!

 

The more I read, the more it becomes so bloody apparent just how tight the situation was during this period. With numbers substantially cut and the problem of logistics (very low ammo, gas rationing, little or NO winter clothing, etc.) it just astounds me how you guys held your ground and then pushed on against ALL odds.
