About 500 Carolina veterans of the European war are due to land tomorrow aboard four transports as the first American army combat division to return intact. They will proceed to Camp Kilmer New Jersey for processing then head to 20 reception stations nationwide. Most are from North Carolina with over 14 from the 86th division returning, the unit that saw action with the third army in northern Germany. The piece notes 1944 tractor production valued at 657 million dollars versus 257 million in 1942 and 342 million in 1941.
