The Austrian Landwehr infantry was organised in 37 Landwehr
infantry regiments and a further three "Landesschützen-Regimenter"
which were trained as specialist mountain infantry regiments. Additionally
Landwehr infantry regiments Nr.4 and Nr.27 were also trained for mountain
duties. Landwehr infantry regiments generally had in peacetime 3 field
battalions as opposed to the four in a common army regiment. Landesschützen
regiments I and III had however four battalions and Landwehr Infantry Regiments
Nr.23 and 27 had two each. Two redesignations of
regimental names took place in January and April 1917 respectively to reflect the valour of the Austrian
Landwehr: The
regiments were renamed as followed:
