Late-war Organization
Given its late formation, the division underwent fewer structural changes than other divisions by late-war. It became more Hessian in nature, losing the 35th Brandenburg Fusiliers to the 228th Infantry Division and receiving the 186th Infantry Regiment (Infanterie-Regiment Nr.186), a regiment formed from the Grand Duchy of Hesse and the Prussian Province of Hesse-Nassau. The division's order of battle on October 19, 1918 was as follows:
- 112.Infanterie-Brigade:
- Infanterie-Regiment Nr.88
- Infanterie-Regiment Nr.118
- Infanterie-Regiment Nr.186
- 4.Eskadron/Braunschweigisches Husaren-Regiment Nr. 17
- Artillerie-Kommandeur Nr. 56:
- Feldartillerie-Regiment Nr.112
- Fußartillerie-Bataillon Nr.56
- Pionier-Bataillon Nr.139
- Divisions-Nachrichten-Kommandeur Nr. 56

Famous quotes containing the word organization:
“... every woman’s organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every one’s hand the power to look after themselves.”
—Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)
