Germany Begins Demobilization Of Reservists In 1914 Crisis
Berlin reports Germany starts demobilizing the mass of reservists after nine weeks of maneuvers. Over 500,000 will be sent home in three to four weeks as new conscripts from Austria and German Sudetenland join the next class. The move coincides with the Czechoslovak crisis and Hitler’s stance against democratic powers. Reserve workers and families welcome their return while emergency labor duties continue for others. The Siegfried line and mobilization plans marked Europe’s gravest crisis since 1914, with final armament estimates reaching 1.5 million under arms before partial demobilization begins.
