demobilise

The infection spread to members of the Kenyan Carrier Corps, who were just about to be demobilised.

Millions of men had suddenly been demobilised from the army and paramilitary groups were forming everywhere.

In the years following the war many American units waiting to demobilise built their own monuments dotted around the European countryside in a haphazard, uncoordinated fashion.

The rest of the men would have to be transported back to the United States and demobilised, while their spare supplies could go towards the reconstructing Europe after the wartime devastation.
