95th Infantry Division Campaign Map

Campaigns of the 95th Infantry Division (The Victory Division) is a detailed World War II route map of the 95th Division during World War II. The map shows the route taken by the 95th Division from its movements in the United States to transferring to England to landing in France to V.E. Day in Germany.

Arriving in France in September 1944, the Victory Division moved into the Moselle bridgehead south of Metz and entered the November offensive with crossings at Uckange and Thionville. Its regiments then fought through the belt of forts, including Fort Yutz, Fort d'Illange, Fort St. Julien, and Fort Bellacroix.

Metz fell after hard urban and fortress fighting, and the division soon pushed toward the Saar. At Saarlautern, the campaign became another close battle through river crossings, city streets, and West Wall defenses. Fighting in Fraulautern, Saarlautern-Roden, and Ensdorf continued into the winter before the division was relieved and later shifted north.

In March 1945, the 95th advanced toward the Rhine, taking Uerdingen and Rheinhausen before holding positions along the river. Its final operations came against the Ruhr Pocket, where the division crossed the Lippe and canal lines, captured Hamm, fought through Kamen and Dortmund, and helped clear industrial resistance north of the Ruhr. The campaign is defined by fortress reduction, urban combat, and the industrial geography of western Germany.
