100th Jäger Division (Wehrmacht)
The German 100th Jäger Division, formerly the 100th Light Infantry Division (German: ''100. Leichte Infanterie Division'') was a light infantry division. As such, it was provided with partial horse or motor transport and lighter artillery. Light divisions were reduced in size compared to standard infantry divisions. During the latter stages of the war, the division was composed of members from most of Germany's geographic areas and a large number of German-speaking Walloons (Belgian/French). Today, 6,000 men are still unaccounted for.
==Background==
The main purpose of the German ''Jäger'' Divisions was to fight in adverse terrain where smaller, coordinated formations were more facilely combat capable than the brute force offered by their standard infantry counterparts. The ''Jäger'' divisions were more heavily equipped than the mountain equivalents, but not as well armed as a larger infantry division. In the early stages of the war, it was the interface divisions fighting in rough terrain and foothills as well as urban areas, between the mountains and the plains. The ''Jägers'' (means "hunters" in German) relied on a high degree of training, and slightly superior communications, as well as their not inconsiderable artillery support. In the middle stages of the war, as the standard infantry divisions were down-sized, the ''Jäger'' model with two infantry regiments came to dominate the standard tables of organization.〔
In 1943, Adolf Hitler declared that all infantry divisions were now ''VolksGrenadier'' Divisions except for his elite ''Jäger'' and Mountain ''Jäger'' divisions.
