Number of engineer combat bns in WWII
#1

My historian friend, Michael Brodhead, was assisting a friend of mine, Harvey Schiller, 133rd Engineer, this week. One of the questions Harvey posed on the phone was answered and CC'd to me:

 

Mr. Schiller--

 

Here is an answer to a question you raised yesterday regarding the number of

engineer combat battalions in WWII:

 

89 divisional

204 non-divisional

Total: 293 (as of 30 June 1945)

Ah, more fun facts to know and tell! Thanks Harvey - thanks Michael!
