The Guards Corps / GK ((ドイツ語:Gardekorps)) was a corps level command of the Prussian and then the Imperial German Armies from the 19th Century to World War I. The Corps was headquartered in Berlin, with its units garrisoned in the city and nearby towns (Potsdam, Jüterbog, Döberitz). Unlike all other Corps of the Imperial German Army, the Guards Corps did not recruit from a specific area, but from throughout Prussia and the "Imperial Lands" of Alsace-Lorraine. The Corps served in the Austro-Prussian War. During the Franco-Prussian War it was assigned to the 2nd Army. In peacetime the Corps was assigned to the II Army Inspectorate but joined the 2nd Army at the start of the First World War. It was still in existence at the end of the war in the 4th Army, ''Heeresgruppe Kronprinz'' Rupprecht on the Western Front. The Corps was disbanded with the demobilisation of the German Army after World War I. == Austro-Prussian War == The Guards Corps fought in the Austro-Prussian War against Austria in 1866, including the Battle of Königgrätz. 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「Guards Corps (German Empire)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
