F0525 — Avaliação americana (5º Exército) dos brasileiros: o Exército teve "provavelmente o menor problema" com eles (treinados e equipados no modelo americano, contingente pequeno, fora de parte importante da linha); dificuldades: treinamento insuficiente antes de chegar à Itália e a disciplina de suprimento "sempre frouxa" do soldado brasileiro

PARCIAL

  • Trecho: "Fifth Army probably had the least trouble with its Brazilians, trained and equipped on the American model, for the Brazilian contingent was not large and was not employed in an important part of the line; the main difficulties experienced here were the inadequate training received by Brazilian units before arrival in Italy and the always lax supply discipline of the individual Brazilian soldiers."

  • Status: PARCIAL (opinião da fonte americana; só S145). Ver p. 297: os elementos que chegaram em agosto "were in need of additional training before being committed".
