The 24th Landwehr Division is of mediocre quality.
1918.
1. In January, 1918, the division was reduced to two regiments, the 427th Regiment having been sent to the Western Front.
Livonia.
2. In March the division advanced into Russia and was identified about the middle of May in the Ostrov-Reijitsa region. The 427th Regiment was dissolved, but the 48th Landwehr Regiment was identified in Russia on the 19th of September. It seems possible that the divisional staff was also disbanded and that the 9th Landwehr Brigade, with the 48th Landwehr Regiment under its orders, again became independent.
