Forty-second Rainbow Division in France Reforms With Losses
The Rainbow division, reorganizing in the United States after France, shows only about 35 percent of its 22 000 men from the original units remaining. Most were wounded or incapacitated, and 67 000 replacements passed through muster during the campaign, far above the 27 500 full war strength. The effort to gather surviving original personnel intensified as orders for home remained.
