AR 26

AR 26, officially known as Artillery Regiment 26, was a unit of the German Wehrmacht active during World War II. Formed in the late 1930s, AR 26 was initially attached to the 26th Infantry Division and participated in the early campaigns of the war, including the invasions of Poland and France. The regiment provided crucial fire support on the Eastern Front, particularly during Operation Barbarossa and subsequent engagements against Soviet forces. AR 26 continued to serve until the final stages of the war, where it faced heavy losses in the defensive battles on the Eastern Front before being disbanded at the war’s end.
