Late-war Order of Battle
As German divisional organizations had become fairly standardized by late 1916 when the division was formed, it underwent relatively few organizational changes over the course of the war. It received a divisional signals command in September 1917, and did not receive an artillery command until October 1918. The order of battle on March 4, 1918 was as follows:
- 6. bayerische Landwehr-Brigade:
- Kgl. Bayerisches Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 2
- Kgl. Bayerisches Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 5
- Kgl. Bayerisches Landwehr-Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 10

Famous quotes containing the words order and/or battle:
“A breath of will blows eternally through the universe of souls in the direction of Right and Necessity. It is the air which all intellects inhale and exhale, and it is the wind which blows the worlds into order and orbit.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I remember the scenes of battle in which we stood together. I remember especially that broad and deep grave at the foot of the Resaca hill where we left those gallant comrades who fell in that desperate charge. I remember, through it all, the gallantry, devotion and steadfastness, the high-set patriotism you always exhibited.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
