Cannon Fodder

Good choice but no, I'm looking for a word Hurtgen kept using in his book, not replenish but something like that. It was the term used by the Army for resupplying fighting men for all the casualties. Arrggh, I can't think of it!

SAM, just want to say this is an excellent post.

Still working on the Polish cracking of Enigma story, just can't boil it down enough and make it accessible enough for the non-crypto type person. The fellow who made the intellectual breakthrough, Marian Rejewski, and his two co-workers, Jerzy Rozycki and Henryk Zygalski, did the most amazing thing I have ever heard about.
