Security Division (Wehrmacht) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Security Division (Wehrmacht)
The ''Wehrmacht'' Security Divisions (German: ''Sicherungs-Divisionen'') were German military units which operated during World War II. ==History and organisation==
The ''Wehrmacht'' Security Divisions were set up at the beginning of 1941 and were intended to perform policing, security and anti-partisan duties in the rear of the main German field armies, under the direction of the respective army rear area command, or ''Korück''. They were organised from divisions initially raised in the 3rd wave of mobilisation, these being former ''Landwehr'' divisions largely manned by second-line reservists. As support units, they were comparatively poorly equipped, and often made up of men who were for the most part unfit for frontline service through age or disability. As well as various guard (''Landesschützen'') and police battalions, the divisions were supposed to be provided with one standard regiment of troops, plus an artillery detachment, as a 'strike force', though in practice this was often used for frontline duty as local conditions demanded. In many cases, the Security Divisions also included battalions of Ukrainian, Russian or French soldiers as well as a unit of captured foreign tanks. Their exact organisation varied widely between individual formations and during the course of the war (see the 286th Security Division for an example). Many of the Security Divisions were thrown into frontline service during the major Soviet offensives of 1944, such as Operation Bagration, and destroyed in the process. Some were rebuilt as standard infantry divisions due to the chronic manpower shortages of the ''Wehrmacht'' in this period.
