German Losses Over A Million In Great War Figures
A British source releases a July 31 statement detailing German manpower losses and mobilization. It cites 1,800,100 Germans on the western front and 1,400,009 on the eastern front, totaling about 3.2 million front-line troops with high casualty rates. Further figures trace cumulative yearly losses near 1.6 million, with killed, missing, and wounded accounting for the vast majority.
