95. Infanterie-Division

The 95. Infanterie-Division was formed in September 1939 as part of the 5. Welle (wave) and equipped with captured Czech equipment.
Oberst Hans-Heinrich Freiherr von Seidlitz und Gohlau was the artillery commander of the division and was killed on 20 September 1941 in Kiev together with the rest of the artillery staff in an explosion caused by either delayed-action or remote-detonated charge.
It was disbanded in July 1944 after suffering heavy losses on the Eastern Front. The remnants formed Divisions-Gruppe 95 which was assigned to Korps-Abteilung H.

The division was reformed on 10 September 1944 from Korps-Abteilung H and surrendered in May 1945 to the Red Army along with the rest of Armee Ostpreußen.
