How many Army Casualties in Europe Area during World War 2?
Good Guestimate AnswerWe'll assume you're asking about the American Army which included the Army Air Corps (later the Air Force) during WW2. One commonly hears that 229,000 Americans died during World War Two. That is the ARMY figure, however. Overall American deaths (413,000, of which approx. 300,000 were combat deaths) were spread pretty much equally between the two theaters. We can assume, however, that Navy and Marine casualties were much higher in the Pacific while Merchant Marine and Army casualties were higher in Europe. Going with this information, I would surmise that the U.S. Army (again, including the Army Air Corps) probably lost about 120,000+ men in Europe during World War Two. My wife and I visited the D-Day museum in Caan, France in September, 2008. (The museum is spectacular.) In it, there is a plaque with the list of deaths by country. They are as follows:Allied PowersRussia 1,800,000France 1,375,800United Kingdom 908,371Italy 578,000Serbia 278,000Romania 250,000United States 114,000Belgium 38,716Central PowersGermany 2,033,700Austria/Hungary 1,100,000Turkey 804,000Bulgaria 87,500
How many men in a World War 1 corps?
A corps is two or more divisions. Frequently in the armies of both sides in WWI a corps had three divisions, but it could have more, There is no set number, just however many divisions seems best to the army commander. (A field army is two or more corps). So the answer depends on the size of the divisions fielded by the country of whose army the corps is a part. British, French and German divisions were around 12-15,000 men at full strength. US divisions of WWI were huge, more than 26,000 men. So, a US corps with only two divisions was bigger than any other nation's corps with three.
