General Wood urges increase in American army to four to five million
General Wood told Senate Military Committee that allied opinion says Germany’s offensive will fail and urged rapid expansion of U S forces to four to five million. He backed 2.56 million in France and 2.5 million in training at home, and proposed universal military training. He noted 1,060 aviators ready but no planes, urged faster ship production and use of Liberty motors to replace fighting aircraft, and warned Germany may face tougher crossings and stronger Allied defense.
