The German 208th Infantry Division, or 208.''Infanterie-Division'' in German, was a large military unit that served during World War II. Like most German infantry divisions, the bulk of its troops were leg-mobile infantry supported by horse-drawn artillery. The 208th Infantry served in the Invasion of Poland of 1939 as a reserve division of Army Group North and was commanded by General Moritz Andreas. During ''Fall Gelb'' it was a reserve division allocated to 18th Army and was mainly active in the occupation of northern Belgium. From January 1942 it fought continuously on the Eastern Front. ==Commanding officers== *Generalleutnant Moritz Andreas, 1 September 1939 *General der Infanterie Hans-Karl von Scheele, 13 December 1941 *Generalleutnant Karl-Wilhelm von Schlieben, 1 February 1943 *Generalmajor Georg Zwade, April 1943 *Generalleutnant Heinz Piekenbrock, 22 June 1943 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「208th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
