118th Guards Rifle Division
The 118th Guards Rifle Division was formed on June 28, 1945, from the re-designated 7th Estonian Rifle Division. On the same date the entire 8th Estonian Rifle Corps was raised to Guards status as the 41st Guards Rifle Corps. On its formation the 118th Guards inherited the honorific title and decoration of the 7th, with its full title being 118th Guards Rifle Estonian, Tallinn, Order of the Red Banner Division.〔Charles C. Sharp, ''"Red Guards", Soviet Order of Battle World War II, Vol. IV'', Nafziger, 1995, p 88〕〔Russian Wikipedia〕
This re-designation took place nearly two months after V-E Day, but before the Soviet invasion of Manchuria, so technically the 118th Guards can be considered a wartime formation, although it did not see combat in Manchuria. The division and its corps was disbanded in 1946.
The division was reformed from the 22nd Guards Independent Rifle Brigade in 1950, and served until 1956 with 4th Guards Rifle Corps (the 10th Guards Army previously), before being disbanded again.〔http://www.ww2.dk/new/army/armies/10gvoa.htm〕
