On June 22, 1941, it was part of the Third Army (Romania) and comprised the 6th and 7th Infantry Divisions. By the time the Siege of Odessa was underway, it was part of the 4th Army (Romania), with the 8th and 14th Infantry Divisions under its command.[1] By October-November 1942, approaching the Battle of Stalingrad, it comprised the 1st Cavalry Division and 13th Infantry Division (Romanian Artillery p.148)
