Pacific Theatre
Unit Will Go
First To Fort
Huachuca, Ariz.
By ERNEST E. JOHNSON


WASHINGTON - CAMP =. Re-
Taxation of the ban on military
news out of Europe by the Office
of Censorship now permits the AS
ISOLATED Negro Press to disclose
automatically that the 92nd Infan-
try division, now in northern Italy
with the Fifth Army, will be
among the outfits returned to the
United States.
The personnel OF the division
in accordance with procedures al
ready detailed by the war depart
ment, will be granted a furlough
and will later report to the divis-
ions home station at Fort Hua-
chuca, Ariz.
NO MORE COMBAT
In view of the already known de-
ficiencies of the outfit, it is evil
cent that early redeployment to
the fighting in the Pacific, If done
at all will not take place soon
Informed military quarters are
guardedly expressing the the view,
the division as snch may never go
into battle. These quarters cite
several factors and likely alter
natives:
The division may oe broken up,
due to inadequacy of training as
a complete fighting outfit and oht-
er handicaps, but selected regi-
ments which demonstrated their
worth conclusively in Italy will be
shipped overseas.
The lack Of trained Negroes
suitable for filling out the division
for infantry duty lessons the likeli-
hood of its retention in that form
Furthermore, the experience gain
ed out of the utilization of inte-
grated units--companies and regi-
ments in the final phase of the
fighting in Europe heightens the
possibility that the best of 92nd as
now constituted may be used fol
placements with white divisions
II this be true, it would appear
that the fight against a segregated
army is making Roadway.
REPLACEMENTS PROBLEM
Contrary to general opinion men
with service forces will be released
under the point system and in sub
/ stantial numbers. The lack of ade-
quate replacemets for them, a
problem with which the army is
now confronted, may compel con-
verting portions of the 92nd from
infantry tn service tasks
