History

The 9th Cavalry Division was a cavalry formation of the Romanian army formed on the spring of 1942 from the 9th Cavalry Brigade.

From August 1942 until September 1943, the 9th Cavalry Division fought in the Caucasus and the Kuban. It retreated together with the German 17th Army to Crimea, where it remained until May 1944, when most of it was evacuated to Romania. During the summer it underwent a process of reorganization and, after Romania's exit from the Axis, the now dismounted 9th Cavalry Division participated in the fighting in the Banat and then into Hungary as part of the 7th Corps, 1st Army. It took part in the battle of Budapest, but in January 1945 the 7th Corps was relocated to Slovakia. It finished the war in the now Czechia, somewhere Northeast of Brno.
