List of Belgian regiments in World War II

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list covers the regiments of the Belgian Army from 1939 to 1945, from mobilization to the ensuing Battle of Belgium and the Battle of France, along with Free Belgian regiments till 1945. This article is based on one source,[1] which covers up every detail on the 18 day campaign (1940) in the Belgian Perspective.

Divisions[edit]

22 divisions form the basis of the Belgian Army. A division at full strength had three infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, an engineer battalion, and some transmission troops. Additional arms may include quartermaster companies, tanks, and signal units. Three divisions form a corps.[2]

Ardennes Hunter divisions (Chasseurs Ardennais)[edit]

Formed in 1934, they were specifically supposed to hold the Ardennes against attack. There were only two divisions.

1st Division Ardennes Hunters, also known as 1st Division Chasseurs Ardennais[23]

2nd Division Ardennes Hunters, also known as 2nd Division Chasseurs Ardennais[24]

Group Ninitte[edit]

Group Ninitte was a special group of regiments that acted as a flexible reserve and defence force.[citation needed]

Infantry 1940[edit]

Before World War II began, the Belgian Army had only 19 regiments, of which most were regiments of the line. In the ensuing mobilization process of the 1930s, each regiment was split, or reinforced, to form 3 more regiments. There was a traditional distinction between the Line Infantry, Foot Hunters, Carabiners, and Grenadiers, but all uniforms remained the same. (Besides the badges)

The Infantry Regiments were divided among 18 Infantry Divisions, two Cavalry Divisions, Several Corps, and Group Ninitte.[25][26]

Field army[edit]

Most of these regiments saw combat in World War I, and were split to form other regiments. These regiments were well equipped as they were the first to enter combat.

Grenadiers and carabiners[edit]

Grenadiers, like all other armies in the world, consist of strong forces in the army. Carabiners fight quick skirmishes with the enemy to allow regular infantry to join the front. Carabiner-Cyclists also have cycles to increase mobility, allowing them to cooperate with cavalry, unlike most infantry. The Carabiner-Cyclists are also considered as cavalry.

Ardennes Hunters[edit]

The Ardennes Hunters were special forces in the Belgian Infantry. Created in 1934 by the reformation of the 10th Line Regiment, these regimental forces position themselves in the Ardennes, manning posts important junctions in the Ardennes region. In the Battle of Belgium, they slowed down the German onslaught, in time for the rest of the army to retreat to new positions.[48]

Second Reserve[edit]

The Second Reserve composed of conscripts that just joined in late 1939. These newer regiments were poorly equipped, their weaponry dated back to the early 1900s. Additionally, each regiment in the Second Reserve was smaller than their First Reserve counterparts, lacking a Fourth Battalion. A lack of heavy weapons plagued the Second Reserve for the duration of the Battle of Belgium.
