Well, I might as well strike while the iron is hot.This time, I have a question about dispersion theory.
According to QJM and Attrition, a WW2 army has a typical dispersion of 2750 or 3000, depending on which book you use. For the sake of argument, lets just use 3000.
If I understand this correctly, with a dispersion of 3000, a WW2 force of 100,000 men is going to occupy a 50x50 km square (very roughly speaking).
In turn, this boils down to ~36 men per km^2.
Is this a correct interpretation ?
