After the 'handstreich' on Liège, German forces were , from 09/08/14, reorganised. General von Emmich was replaced by General der Kavalerie von Einem. Does anyone know the oob of von Einem forces? I find references to 3 army corps

Thank you Glenn


So am i correct in thinking

VII armeekorps = 13 + 14 infantry division

IX armeekorps = 17 + 18 infantrydivision

x armeekorps  = 19 + 20 infantry division

+ services and heavy artillery

Hi Carl,

those are certainly the subordinate Divisions.
