Reserve-Division) was a reserve infantry division of the Imperial German Army in World War I. It was formed, on mobilization in August 1914, from reserve infantry units, primarily from East Prussia and was part of I Reserve Corps. The division served on the Eastern Front from the beginning of the war until October 1917, after which it was transferred to the Western Front for the wars final campaigns. It was rated a third class division by Allied intelligence, mainly due to its losses in heavy fighting and reduced quality of replacement troops. 1st Reserve Division (1. Reserve-Division) Active from 1914 to 1919 Division Size Approx. 15,000 World War I - Main activities: Gumbinnen, Tannenberg, 1st Masurian Lakes, Lodz, Spring Offensive, Hundred Days Offensive. Late World War I organization German Divisions underwent many changes during the war, with regiments moving from division to division, and some being destroyed and rebuilt. During the war, most divisions became triangular - one infantry brigade with three infantry regiments rather than two infantry brigades of two regiments (a square division). The 1st Reserve Division triangulated in June 1917. An artillery commander replaced the artillery brigade headquarters, the cavalry was further reduced, the engineer contingent was increased and a divisional signals command was created.  Divisional Structure 1914  1st German Cavalry Division part of 1st Reserve Cavalry Corps and 8th German Army Divisional Structure in 1914 1st Cavalry Brigade (from 1st Corps District) 3rd (East Prussian) Cuirassiers (Count Wrangel) 1st (Lithuanian) Dragoons (Prince Albrecht of Prussia) 2nd Cavalry Brigade (from 1st Corps District) 12th (Lithuanian) Uhlans 9th Jäger zu Pferde 41st Cavalry Brigade (from 20th Corps District) 5th (West Prussian) Cuirassiers (Duke Frederick Eugene of Württemberg) 4th (1st Pommeranian) Uhlans (von Schmidt) Horse Artillery Abteilung of the 1st (1st Lithuanian) Field Artillery (Prince August of Prussia) Engineers and Liaison 5th Machine Gun Detachment Pioneer Detachment Signals Detachment 17th Heavy Wireless Station 7th Light Wireless Station 14th Light Wireless Station Transport Cavalry Motorised Vehicle Column  Divisional Structure 1918  1st German Cavalry Division part of 1st Reserve Cavalry Corps and 8th German Army Divisional Structure in 1918 2nd Cavalry Brigade (from 1st Corps District) 3rd (East Prussian) Cuirassiers (Count Wrangel) 1st (Lithuanian) Dragoons (Prince Albrecht of Prussia) 12th (Lithuanian) Uhlans Horse Artillery Abteilung of the 1st (1st Lithuanian) Field Artillery (Prince August of Prussia) Abteilung of the 35th (1st West Prussian) Field Artillery Engineers and Liaison 1st Pioneer Detachment 347th Searchlight Section Medical and Veterinary 70th Ambulance Company 66th Veterinary Hospital 142nd Veterinary Hospital Other Units 152nd Cyclist Company 153rd Cyclist Company 159th Cyclist Company If you can provide any additional information, please add it here.
