324th Replacement Battalion

The 324th Replacement Battalion was a unit of the United States Army responsible for processing and assigning replacement personnel to combat and support units during World War II. Activated in the early 1940s, the battalion played a critical role in maintaining troop strength, particularly in the European Theater of Operations. It managed the reception, training, and onward movement of soldiers to front-line units, ensuring that combat divisions remained effective despite casualties. After the end of hostilities in 1945, the battalion was inactivated as part of the general postwar demobilization.
