No, you're right. They are sure to maintain squad integrity after the raid. I tend to watch the History Channel and/or the Military History channel quite frequently. I know, big surprise. I saw this WWII Veteran; former 101st Airborne Infantry and Bastogne survivor. After the 10th Armor and 26th Infantry Divisions relieved them at Bastogne, he read an account of the fight in Stars & Stripes where Patton's 3rd Army "Rescued" the 101st Airborne Division on the 26th of December 1944. He and his brothers in the 101 were offended by that statement. At no time did any of them feel as though they required "Rescuing". He adamantly stated they had a lot of fight left in them and could fight on. Also, he said that if they had eight guys in their squad, they were doing well, when the squads were authorized twelve. The guy said they were constantly being killed. They had cherries that were assigned to the unit in the morning and dead by nightfall. They typically had only four or five guys in a twelve man squad. So yea, these guys are going to take some losses. We may find a squad fragment; nothing more than a fire team working with the cell.
