One of the most spectacular feats of the United States Army during World War II was its expansion from a force of 235,000 men in May 1940, to nearly six million men by 1945. No less a personage than Winston Churchill, the great wartime leader of Britain, declared that the magnificent American management of the growth of its wartime forces (coupled with its lend-lease supplies to its Allies) had no precedent in history.
The basic building block and fighting unit of the U.S, ground force was the division. Initially projecting a 92-division force, the U.S. Army eventually fielded 89, of which 87 were employed in combat.
