I'm a bit surprised that men in wooly scarves rate the same as trained soldiers though? No wonder they were brought along in the attack.
Worrowski? Interesting looking unit. Not regular Wehrmacht? What's the back ground?
Plain Ian -
The Canadian divisions in Northwest Europe took disproportionate casualties in the summer of '44, such that attrition outpaced the training of new infantrymen. The situation came to a head in late September/October as Canada was running out of trained infantrymen. The Canadians continued to replace losses (sometimes very quickly) but with men with insufficient or no infantry training (often drawn from service units). The poor training of the Canadian infantrymen definitely impacted the course of the campaign and at least partially accounts for a few battalions being all but wiped out in the assaults around Woensdrecht. The Quality D rating in the Canadian infantry reflects this. It should be noted that Canadian artillery, engineers, etc. are rated Quality C as these arms did not suffer nearly the same rates of attrition. There are certain British divisions in a similar situation.
Battalion Worrowski is a Luftwafffe unit.
ComradeP - Made the change in the map tonight. Thanks for spotting that!
