Ave amici,
Who can provide me here with a detailed order of battle for the Division Nr. 538 which was disbanded April 1941 after the end of Jugoslawien Campaign. The division was made up from various Customs, Gebirgs and Grenzwacht detachments along the northern German-Yugoslav border in Carinthia. Anxiously trying to get some reports about this Division's actions in Northern Yugoslavia in April 1941. Can anyone help?
Gratiam,
Octavianus
Division Nr. 538

Formed 09/12/39 in Klagenfurt by the renaming of the 20th Border Defense detachment on the German/Italian & German/Yugo borders.
Called up for duty on March 28th 1941, and quickly stood down again.
