In the series of historical studies of the Army Ground Forces, 1942-45, a volume previously published, The Organization of Ground Combat Troops, deals with policies governing the number, size, composition, and equipment of the ground combat units in World War II. This volume centers on training, the principal mission of the Army Ground Forces. Since the obtaining of qualified personnel proved to be basic to the fulfillment of this mission, the first three studies deal with the procurement of enlisted men and officers possessed of the qualities and aptitudes desired for service in ground combat. The three studies which follow discuss the policies and problems involved in the training of individuals, enlisted and commissioned, for their special functions in ground combat-a responsibility which the Commanding General of the Army Ground Forces received in March 1942 as successor to the chiefs of the statutory arms. The last four studies in the volume deal with the training of units, which the Army Ground Forces regarded as its principal and most urgent task.

Excerpt from The Procurement and Training of Ground Combat Troops The armed forces of the United States at their peak strength during World War II numbered approximately The Army's share of this total was roughly of which about were enlisted men. Another volume of this series has described the problems attending the allocation to ground combat units of an adequate proportion of the mobilized manpower.1 Of equal concern to the Army Ground Forces was the quality of these men with respect to their basic aptitudes for service in the ground arms. Even if these basic aptitudes had been firmly established by the system of classifying the Army's quota of the national manpower, not all of those found to possess them could have been assigned to the Army Ground Forces. The com peting demands of the Air Forces for men with combat aptitudes and of both the Air and Service Forces for men with technical qualifications had to be met also. The supply necessary to meet all demands having quickly been found inadequate, priorities were established. In 1942 it was deemed necessary to give the Army Air Forces first call on the Army's quota of men in the highest brackets of general military aptitude. By the end of 1943 the operation of this priority and of other factors had reduced to a dangerously low level the number of men allotted to the Ground Forces who seemed likely to perform effectively in combat. In 1944 priority as between Air and Ground Forces was reversed, and the system of classification was revised to select more effectively for ground combat service the types of men who had an aptitude for such service.
