92nd Has Comparatively Small
Casualty List

The total casualties suffered by
the 92nd (ColOred) Division since
being i'll France have just been
obtained by me. The Division
suffered a total Of 1,47S casual
ties. Among the killed were six
officers, and one officer died from
wounds received in action, while
81 enlisted men died from
wounds. 40 enlisted men died
from diseases; % enlisted men
were listed as missing, 16 off
GERS and 543 enlisted men were
wounded; and 80 officers and 661
men We're gassed. The division S
number Of gassed is unusually
large. A reason is, perhaps, that
the Colored soldiers in the front
line trenches of this division were
unusually daring in making raids
into the enemy S territory.
Considering, especially, the des-
perate advance the Colored sol
diers Of this division made out
from POnt-a-MoussOn the morning
of November 10th, through a val
ley swept by the heavy German
guns Of Metz, and nests of Ger
man machine guns, the casualty
is slight; for on the morning |
saw them make the advance, and
knowing the dangerous ground
they were tr cover to make their
objective, il appeared miraculous
that the division was not wiped
out. The casualty in that advance
was, perhaps, as light as it was
because of the rapidity with which
their line advanced. Officers could
not hold them back, and the Ger
man guns and soldiers could not
stop them. They plunged OH to
Preny and Pagny, and they rush
ed into the Bois Frehaut, and
held. for 36 hours, after they took
it, this place from which picked
Moroccan and Senegalese troops
were forced to retreat in ten min
utes after they had entered it. Oc-
Icupying this Boise F'rehaut for 36
hours against a murderous fire
from The enemy, remaining there
until hOstilities ceased, it is sur
prising-a miracle, that the cas-
ualty list of the 92nd Division did
not mount to many times 1,478.
