Devers Announces Casualties Of
Army's Ground Forces In War
THAT'S TELLING 'EM
A mother took her seven-year-old
daughter to a very progressive, mod
ern school. Among the questions
asked was this one: "Are you a j
little girl or little boy?"
The little girl answered: "I'm a
boy." I
Well, the teacher went on at I
great rate, scaring the poor mother j
to death by saying the child was !
psychologically confused, that sha
should be put with the group of prob
lem children, she wasn't quite
bright, etc. On the way home the
mother said: "Darling, why did you
say you were a little boy?"
Her daughter gave her a long
look. "Well, when anybody asks
me a dumb question, I give a dumb
answer."

WASHINGTON The A r ni y
Ground Forces reported that World
War 11 cost them 627,869 casual
ties, 81 per cent of the army total
in that conflict.
Gen. Jacob L. Devers, comman
der, United States Army Ground
Forces, said that 122,562 of his men
were killed in action from Decem
ber 7, 1941, through August SI,
1945.
The Army Ground Forces raised
89 divisions and sent them all over
seas, 88 of them into combat, liy
January, 1945, a total of 47 infantry
regiments in 19 divisions had lost
from 100 to 200 per cent of their
strength in battle casualties, liy
May, 1945, the live divisions hit
hardest had sull'ered 176 per cent
battle casualties in all.
Heaviest casualties were in (lie
Third, Fourth, Ninth, 3(ilh and 451 h
Divisions. The Third suffered 33.
547 casualties in a division with an
authorized strcnHth of 14,037 men.
The total included 6,571 killed in
action, 24,650 wounded and 2,326
missing in action.
Total losses in the other luud-liit
divisions were:
Fourth, 21,205; Ninth. 22,158;
36th, 26,718, and 45th, 27,207.
The casualty peak occurred on or
about November 20, 1944, during
the drive on the Ithine, the report
said. The heaviest losses in cap
tured occurred during the Haltle
of the Bulge, December 11! to Jan
uary 1, 1945.
"in the latter part of 1944 the
stalemate before (he Siegfried
Line, with its atrocious winter con
ditions, wore out men much more
rapidly than the inadequate Euro
pean port facilities had been sup
plying them, the report said.
"In some sectors our battle lines
were thin. It was just at this mo
ment that the Nazis threw their
final punch in the Ardennes.''
Airborne units sull'ered 25,822
casualties, including 5,451 killed in
action, 19,418 wounded and 935
missing. None of the five airborne
units suffered half as many casual
ties as the live hardest-hit infantry
units, although they receive 50 per
cent more pay for hazardous duty.
Armored divisions suffered 65,
110 casualties, including 13.752
killed, 48,418 wounded and 2,940
missing. The First Cavalry Divi
sion, the only one of its kind, suf
fered 8,883 casualties, and the Kith
Mountain Division 4,130.
Only one infantry division, the
98th, escaped without casualties. It
was stationed in Hawaii. The Kith
Armored Division had only 14 cas
ualties, none of them deaths, and
the 134th Airborne Division had 13
casualties.
The Army Ground Forces won
239 of the 276 medals of honor
awarded during the war. Nearly
half of the 239 died in service.
The A t i F also received 80 per cent
of the 3,700 Distinguished Service
Crosses granted in World War II
i ir heroism.
