2nd Bavarian Landwehr Division (German Empire) - Late-war Order of Battle

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
  • 3.Eskadron/Kgl. Bayerisches Reserve-Kavallerie-Regiment Nr. 1
  • Kgl. Bayerisches Landwehr-Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr. 2
  • Stab Kgl. Bayerisches Pionier-Bataillon Nr. 25
