What is a WWII Corps?
#2

Marion: Hate to tell you but most of us dogfaces didnt know what Corps, Army, or the likes we were in many times.

We were lucky to know even what other companies, batallions, or maybe regiments were around. Let alone other divisions

most times.. This was the least of our worries and could not be bothered worrying about it. This was left to the "battle planners" and the likes. Same as ammo and food supplies. Not our job. We just hoped ammo and food finally found its

way to us. Same as tank, T.D. , artillery support, Eng. support and other supporting groups. We just hoped they would be around when needed, and usually were. We just took one day at a time and hoped these "battle planners" knew what they were doing. A "big picture" or even a small picture, we didnt have most times. Just a objective to take. That was our goal for each day. Corps, Army, never entered our minds. So why should we bother with "way above dealings" over which we had no control.
