Nearly Half War Cargo to Pacific
Army figures show about 40 percent of overseas cargo in 1943-44 went to Pacific battle areas and 60 percent to the Atlantic. Some 5 million American troops were overseas, with 70 percent in the Atlantic and 30 percent in the Pacific theaters. Inductions totaled about 1 million, a drop from the prior year. Gasoline and related products made up about half of overseas shipments. Total deliveries to the army reached 23.5 billion dollars, up from 20 billion the previous year.
