| dbo:abstract | The 54th Infantry Division (54.Infanterie-Division) was a division of the Imperial German Army during World War I. The division was formed on March 3, 1915, from units taken from other divisions or newly raised. Its infantry core was from different parts of the German Empire: the 27th Reserve Infantry Regiment from Prussian Saxony, taken from the 7th Reserve Division, the 84th Infantry Regiment from Schleswig-Holstein, taken from the 18th Infantry Division, and the 90th Reserve Infantry Regiment from the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, taken from the 18th Reserve Division. Divisional cavalry was a squadron of Brunswick's Death's Head Hussars. After a brief period on the line in France, the division was sent to the Eastern Front in July 1915. It returned to the Western Front in October 1915. From May to November 1916, the division saw extensive action in the Battle of Verdun, especially in the fight for Fort Douaumont. In 1917, it saw action in the Third Battle of Ypres, suffering heavy losses. It also faced the Allied tank attack in Cambrai in November 1917. It was rated by Allied intelligence in 1917 and 1918 as a second class division, mainly due to heavy losses in the attacks it faced or took part in. (en) Die 54.

En 1917, elle participe aux batailles du Chemin des Dames et de Passchendaele où elle subit des pertes très importantes. À l'automne 1917, elle reçoit de plein fouet l'attaque de chars de la bataille de Cambrai. En 1918, la 54e division intervient dans un second temps dans l'offensive Michael, avant de participer aux différents combats défensifs de l'été et de l'automne. À la fin des combats, la division est transférée en Allemagne et dissoute au cours de l'année 1919. (fr) |
