rear of the 3d Bavarian Corps August 20, and crossed the frontier the
25th. September 7 it had heavy losses at the attack against Nancy
(Champenoux). The 40th Brigade Ersatz Battalion lost half its forces
(notebook). It continued, however, to take part in the operations in
Lorraine in the region of Moncel until September 12, 1914, after which
it went to rest near Chateau Salins.

The division suffered heavy losses in Champagne in May, 1917, and at
Ypres in September and October, 1917. The division has only moderate
value.
1918.
BATTLE OF THE LYS.
1. The division remained in line until the attack on the Lys in April.
It was engaged north of the La Bassee Canal (Givenchy, Festubert,
southeast of Lacre), from April 9 to 24. The losses were heavy,
including 700 prisoners. The 360th Regiment suffered the most in the
fighting.
2. It was relieved on the 12th and rested in rear of the line until the
29th, when it returned to its former sector at Locre until May 3.
3. The division rested near Roubaix (Bondues, Wambrechies) until the

Valenciennes through Escaudoevres, Iwny (Oct. 11), Verchain (Oct. 21),
Maing (Oct. 24–25), Famars (Oct. 27), north of Le Quesnoy (Oct. 27). It
retired to the second line about November 1, but was reengaged southeast
of Antoingt on November 9.
VALUE.
The 10th Ersatz Division was rated as a third-class division. Its
service in 1918 was as a sector-holding division. It appears to have
been a division of average value.

HISTORY.
(First District—Eastern Prussia.)
1915.
The present 10th Landwehr Division (the old 10th Landwehr Division took
the name of the 1st Landwehr Division) was built around the 9th Landwehr
Brigade (Brandenburg), which was brought to Koenigsburg as early as
August 14, 1914, to constitute its war garrison. It found at Koenigsburg
some of the mobile depot battalions of the regiments of the 1st Army
Corps, from which came the three Koenigsburg Ersatz infantry regiments,
which became, respectively, the 376th, 377th, and 378th Infantry. The
present 372d Infantry is the former Ersatz infantry regiment of the 10th
Landwehr Division.
POLAND.
1. These troops, at first fighting in eastern Prussia, took part in the
campaign in Poland with the 1st Landwehr Corps, beginning with the first
part of 1915.
2. About the end of July, 1915, the division took part in the offensive
against the Russians, forced the passage of the Narew, and advanced east
of Vilna to the region of Vileiki in September.
LAKE NAROTCH.
3. After the front was stabilized it established itself between Spiagla
and Lake Svir, south of Lake Narotch.
1916.
1. The division remained in line near Lake Svir until July, 1916.
VOLHYNIA.
2. About July 27 the units of the division were relieved from the front
of Lake Narotch and sent to Volhynia to the Von Linsingen Army. The 9th
Landwehr Brigade became independent and did not follow the division,
which was reduced to three regiments. These were engaged on the banks of
the Stokhod at the end of July at Lokatchi and Kachovka and remained in
line in the region of Kisselin and Sviniouki until the beginning of
1918.
1917.
VOLHYNIA.
1. January to December, 1917, in the Kisselin-Sviniouki sector.
2. In November, 1917, the three regiments of the division furnished 60
men per company for the Western Front, picked from the strongest, and
received in exchange older men. In October, 16 men per company had
already been transferred to the 14th Division following the latter’s
losses on the Aisne.
RECRUITING.
The division is sufficiently homogeneous, the regiments as a rule coming
from eastern Prussia. However, the necessity of filling up the ranks
before being sent to France brought it a number of men from other
Provinces.
VALUE—1917 ESTIMATE.
In spite of its drafts, which are good, and the large number of
officers, many of whom are in the active army, the division remained on
the Eastern Front until March, 1918. Up to the present time it has
received no training with a view to warfare on the Western Front, and
must be considered for the time being as of mediocre value (April,
1918). The men of more than 35 years of age were left in Russia as
abrüstungs kommando (cleaning up and salvage).
1918.
SECOND BATTLE OF THE MARNE.
1. On June 3 the division entrained in the Woevre and traveled via
Conflans-Sedan-Mezieres-Laon to Malmaison, where it detrained on June 4.
It marched to the front via Fismes, Fere en Tardenois, and Fresnes. It
came into line on the Marne near Mont St. Pere about June 10. Here it
was in line until July 15, when it dropped back to permit an attacking
division to pass through. In the retreat the division again came into
line a few days later and was heavily engaged on the defense until about
August 1.
2. Heavy losses, including 300 prisoners on July 23, led to the
dissolution of the division. Its effectives were turned into other fresh
divisions. The 372d, 377th, and 378th went to the 37th Division, 36th
Division, and 201st Division in the order named.
VALUE—1918 ESTIMATE.
The division was rated as a fourth-class division.

Composition at time of dissolution, August, 1918.
HISTORY.
(16th Bavarian: First Bavarian District—Lower Bavaria. 6th Reserve
Bavarian and 8th Reserve Bavarian: Second Bavarian District—Bavarian
Palatinate.)
1915.
This division was organized in Belgium in March, 1915. Its three
infantry regiments were drawn from already existing Bavarian
divisions—the 16th Bavarian from the 1st Bavarian Division, the 6th
Reserve Bavarian from the 5th Bavarian Reserve Division, and the 8th
Bavarian Reserves from the 4th Bavarian Division.
1. In April, 1915, the division was in the region of Tournai.
SOMME.
2. In May it took over the sector of Lihons-Estrees road to Foucaucourt,
which it occupied until the Franco-British offensive of 1916.
3. In October some units of the division were sent as reinforcements to
Neuville-St. Vaast and to Champagne.
1916.
SOMME.
1. Remained in the Foucaucourt-Lihons sector until the middle of June,
1916.
2. At the end of June it was sent south of Bapaume and took part in the
battle of the Somme near Contalmaison, Bazentin le Petit, and Longueval
from July 1 to the end of July. The 6th Reserve Infantry suffered
heavily. Its 2d Battalion lost 11 officers and 724 men (casualty lists).
GALICIA.
3. About the middle of August the division was sent to the Eastern Front
(Stanislau) and the trip lasted from August 13 to 18.
BUKOVINA.
4. September and October: Bukovina (Dorna-Vatra, Kirlibaba, west of Mont
Capoul). It fought against the right wing of the Roumanian Army.
TRANSYLVANIA.
5. From November, 1916, to the end of January, 1917, it held the sector
of Tolgyes in Transylvania.
1917.
GALICIA.
1. At the beginning of February, 1917, the division left the Roumanian
front and went to Galicia (sector of Zalosce) from February to May,
being attached to the 2d Austro-Hungarian Army.
FRANCE.
2. In May the division returned to France, via Zloczow (May 19),
Lemberg, Cracow, Breslau, Frankfort on Main, Treves.
ALSACE.
Detrained about May 25 in the region of Mulhouse; then was sent to rest
and training in Upper Alsace at the beginning of June and sent to
Belgium (June 12 to 14).
FLANDERS.

of July 31. It then went to the region of Catelet (sector of Gonnelieu)
from August 12 to the end of September. It was near Becelaere in
October.
RUSSIA.
4. At the end of October it was again sent to the Eastern Front. After a
few weeks’ rest at Brest Litovsk it returned to France without having
fought. Entrained November 22 at Brest Litovsk and detrained in Lorraine
the 27th. Itinerary: Warsaw-Posen-Erfurt.
LORRAINE.
5. On November 29 to 30 it went into line in the forest of Bezange and
was relieved in the middle of January, 1918.
RECRUITING.
The 16th Infantry: Lower Bavaria. The two other regiments: Bavarian
Palatinate.
VALUE—1917 ESTIMATE.
The greater part of the division is composed of young men. It does not
seem to have suffered any losses for a long time. However, its morale
seems to have been shaken at times. When it was sent from St. Quentin to
Ypres at the end of September, 1917, it is believed that the officers of
the 16th Infantry had trouble in preventing a mutiny. (British
Information Bulletin, Oct. 12, 1917.)
1918.
1. The division was relieved in the Vosges on May 13 and rested near
Dieuze until May 30. It entrained and moved by Metz and Sedan,
Charleville, Liart, and detrained near Laon on the 30th–31st. It moved
to the front by Bruyeres, Braye en Laennois, Mont Notre-Dame, Neuilly-
St. Front.
BATTLE OF THE AISNE AND MARNE.
2. It was reengaged southeast of Troësnes-Passy en Valois (on the Ourcq)
from June 5 to July 18. It was thrown back on Rozet St. Albin (July 20)
and then west of Armentieres (21st). About that date the division was
relieved.
The division was dissolved in August and its units sent to the 6th
Bavarian Reserve Division, 11th Bavarian Division, and 14th Bavarian
Division.
VALUE—1918 ESTIMATE.
The division was rated as a second-class division. In 1918 it saw but
six weeks of active fighting before it was dissolved.
