The 59th Infantry Division was formed in June 1944 in the Groß Born area. It saw immediate action on the Western Front. It had a serious equipment and training shortage due to its quick formation. It was surrounded at the Falaise Pocket. A little later after the division was part of 15th Army as it retreated to BrabantStad. In October the division was part of Army Group B during The Battle of the Scheldt. In February 1945 the division was stationed on The Rhine. Later after the Battle of the Ruhr the division was diminished as a result of the end of the war.[1]
