The XIV Reserve Corps ({{lang-de|XIV. Reserve-Korps / XIV RK}}) was a corps level command of the German Army in World War I.

Formation

XIV Reserve Corps was formed on the outbreak of the war in August 1914[1] as part of the mobilisation of the Army. It was initially commanded by General der Artillerie Richard von Schubert, brought out of retirement.[2] It was still in existence at the end of the war[3] in the 17th Army, Heeresgruppe Kronprinz Rupprecht on the Western Front.[4]

Structure on formation

On formation in August 1914, XIV Reserve Corps consisted of two divisions, made up of reserve units. In general, Reserve Corps and Reserve Divisions were weaker than their active counterparts

Reserve Infantry Regiments did not always have three battalions nor necessarily contain a machine gun company[5]

Reserve Jäger Battalions did not have a machine gun company on formation[6]

Reserve Cavalry Regiments consisted of just three squadrons[7]

Reserve Field Artillery Regiments usually consisted of two abteilungen of three batteries each[8]

Corps Troops generally consisted of a Telephone Detachment and four sections of munition columns and trains [9]

In summary, XIV Reserve Corps mobilised with 26 infantry battalions, 7 machine gun companies (42 machine guns), 6 cavalry squadrons, 12 field artillery batteries (72 guns) and 3 pioneer companies. 26th Reserve Division was formed by units drawn from the XIII Corps District (Württemberg).[10] It included one active Infantry Regiment (180th).
