Wehrmacht Order of Battle

The Wehrmacht Order of Battle refers to the organizational structure and deployment of Nazi Germany's military forces during World War II. It details how divisions, corps, and generals were arranged and assigned roles in campaigns. This comprehensive setup included land armies (Heer), air force (Luftwaffe), and navy (Kriegsmarine), outlining their command hierarchy, unit types, and strategic positioning. Understanding this structure helps explain how Germany coordinated its military operations, managed resources, and responded to battlefield challenges during the war.
