		Subsequent issues were published at Geislingen, staffed partly by ex-members of the 63rd Division who filled gaps left by 36thers who had already returned home, until the division returned to the states in November 1945 for deactivation.

		The next day the division was withdrawn from the front and moved to the area around St. Omer where it regrouped, received large numbers of fresh soldiers to replace those killed or wounded, and made ready for its next engagement - the Battle of Messines.
		The 36th Division joined the Second Army under General Plumer - a senior officer old-fashioned in appearance but with the deserved reputation both for meticulous battle preparation, and, in what had become a war of attrition, a keen regard for the saving of the lives of the men under his command.
		Nevertheless, the division still had a significant part to play in many of the remaining battles and campaigns of the War such as: The Battle of Cambrai in November, 1917; the German Spring Offensive of 1918, and its advance through Belgium during the War's final hundred days.

		Making matters more difficult, the assaulting units of the 36th Division were below strength by as much as 500 men per regiment and contained many unassimilated replacements and undertrained small-unit leaders who had only recently arrived to fill the gaps left by the heavy losses suffered in the recent battles for the Bernhard Line.
		The division was attached to the newly created Fifth Army, but did not see any action during the closing months of the North African campaign or in Sicily in July.

		The experiences of the SSS detachment working with the 36th Division comprised two very different phases--the period prior to the crossing of the Moselle River on September 21 and the period of the advance from the Moselle to the Meurthe River.
		Opposition became increasingly fierce as the division approached the Meurthe River in the Vosges region, and the relatively stationary German front became harder to penetrate.
		This left the 36th Division's right flank exposed, and the division command was extremely worried that the Germans might counterattack on that flank.
