Prinz Eugen
The 7th SS Volunteer Mountain Division "Prinz Eugen" ("7. SS-Freiwilligen Gebirgs-Division "Prinz Eugen""), initially named the SS-Volunteer Division "Prinz Eugen" ("SS-Freiwilligen-Division "Prinz Eugen""), was a German mountain infantry division of the Waffen-SS during World War II. It served only in occupied Yugoslavia. Formed in 1941 from both Germans and "Volksdeutsche" (ethnic German) volunteers and conscripts from the Banat, Independent State of Croatia, Hungary and Romania, the division fought a bloody counter-insurgency campaign against communist-led Yugoslav Partisan resistance forces in the German-occupied territories of Serbia and Montenegro, as well as elsewhere in Yugoslavia.
