French unit sizes as an indication of casualites they have taken in the war

[Olefin]

Keep in mind that French divisions are smaller and are more like large brigades - but you are right about them being undermanned

Clearly the French have taken a lot of casualties

I dont see the FAR transferring men back to France - remember even the French dont have a lot of oil - if you read Going Home helos and armor patrols only happened if someone had a damn good reason - i.e. they had oil and gas but not a lot of it

by the way - the fact that the 6th Light is mentioned shows that the GDW guys didnt know about the real disposition of the French Army - because two of its regiments are sitting in the Middle East per the RDF module
