The '''16th Rifle Division''' ({{lang-ru|16-я стрелковая Литовская Клайпедская Краснознамённая дивизия|translit=16-ya strelkovaya Litovskaya Klaypedskaya Krasnoznamonnaya diviziya}}; {{Lang-he|דיוויזיית הרובאים הליטאית ה-16}}; {{lang-lt|16-oji 'Lietuviškoji' divizija}}) was a formation in the [[Red Army]] created during [[World War II]]. The division was formed twice, and was given the title '[[Lithuania]]n' during its second formation.

It was originally established at [[Tambov]] in May 1918. It was wiped out at [[Mga]] in July 1941. Reformed and given the title 'Lithuanian', the division participated in several battles against [[Nazi Germany]], including [[Battle of Kursk|Kursk]], [[Operation Bagration|Belarus]], and the [[Baltic offensive|Baltic]]. In the immediate [[post-war]], the division became a brigade but re-became a division in 1950. It was disbanded in 1956.

==First formation==
The division was originally formed in 1918.

=== Operation Barbarossa ===
At the beginning of [[Operation Barbarossa]] the 16th Rifle Division (1st formation) was part of [[Northwestern Front]]'s [[27th Army (Soviet Union)|27th Army]], reporting directly to Army headquarters along with the [[67th Rifle Division]] and 3rd Rifle Brigade.<ref>Orbat.com/Niehorster, [http://niehorster.org/012_ussr/41_oob/baltic/army_27.html 27th Army Order of Battle, 22 June 1941]</ref> It was destroyed at [[Mga]] amid the first German drive on Leningrad.

==Second formation==

=== Background ===
[[File:Lithuanian soldiers, liberated from the former Lithuanian corps of the Red Army, greeted in Vilnius, Lithuania during the June Uprising, 1941.jpg|thumb|Soldiers of the [[Lithuanian Armed Forces|Lithuanian Army]], liberated from the former Lithuanian corps of the [[Red Army]], warmly greeted in [[Vilnius]], [[Lithuania]] during the [[June Uprising in Lithuania|June Uprising]], 1941]]
When the 16th Division was reformed after its destruction, it was named 'Lithuanian' for political purposes.

After [[Lithuania]], along with [[Latvia]] and [[Estonia]], were [[Soviet occupation of the Baltic states (1940)|occupied by the Soviet Union]] in June 1940, the [[Lithuanian Army]] was reorganized into the [[Lithuanian People's Army]] and soon the [[Red Army]]'s [[29th Rifle Corps]]. At the start of [[Operation Barbarossa]] in June 1941, Lithuanians massively deserted, killed non-Lithuanian commanders and joined the anti-Soviet [[June Uprising in Lithuania|June Uprising]].<ref name=":6">{{Cite web |title=Литовские формирования в составе Красной армии 1940 – 1945 гг. |trans-title=Lithuanian formations in the Red Army 1940-1945 |url=https://runivers.ru/doc/d2.php?SECTION_ID=6961&PORTAL_ID=6369 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141105145423/https://runivers.ru/doc/d2.php?SECTION_ID=6961&PORTAL_ID=6369 |archive-date=5 November 2014 |access-date= |website=runivers.ru |language=ru}}</ref> Out of the 16,000 soldiers of the 29th Rifle Corps, only 2,000 retreated with the Red Army.<ref name=":6" /> The Corps' remnants retreated to [[Velikiye Luki]] by mid-July.<ref name=":6" /> The corps was officially disbanded on 23 September 1941.<ref name=":6" />

Despite this disaster, Lithuanian communists, including [[Antanas Sniečkus]] and [[Mečislovas Gedvilas]], sought to establish a new Lithuanian unit. Similar national military units formed from the ethnicities of the other Baltic republics were the [[8th Estonian Rifle Corps]] and the [[130th Latvian Rifle Corps]]. In mid-1943, compared to the [[7th Rifle Division (Soviet Union)|7th]] and [[149th Rifle Division (Soviet Union)|149th Estonian]] (81% and 63% Estonian respectively) and [[43rd Guards Rifle Division|43rd Latvian Guards]] (38.8% Latvian) Rifle Divisions, the 'Lithuanian' division had the lowest percentage (36.5%) of the titular Baltic ethnicity.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Simon |first=Gerhard |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4KqbDwAAQBAJ |title=Nationalism And Policy Toward The Nationalities In The Soviet Union: From Totalitarian Dictatorship To Post-stalinist Society |date=2019-04-11 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-0-429-71311-8 |language=en}}</ref> The purpose of the divisions was not only military but also political as their members were important for the planned post-war Sovietization of the occupied Baltic states.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Simon |first=Gerhard |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4KqbDwAAQBAJ&q=16th+Lithuanian+Division |title=Nationalism And Policy Toward The Nationalities In The Soviet Union: From Totalitarian Dictatorship To Post-stalinist Society |date=2019-04-11 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-0-429-71311-8 |language=en}}</ref>

Formation and training of the division came to an end by February 1943 and the division entered the war on 21 February 1943 at Alekseyevka, 50&nbsp;km southeast of [[Oryol]]. This brought the division into the path of the Wehrmacht's [[Operation Citadel]]. The division fought in the [[Battle of Kursk]], where it served with the [[42nd Rifle Corps]] of the [[48th Army (Soviet Union)|48th Army]], Soviet Central Front.<ref name=":5" />

In the first days of the battle, the 16th Rifle Division withstood the attack of the German [[383rd Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)|383rd Infantry]] and [[18th Panzer Division (Wehrmacht)|18th Panzer Division]]s, that were accompanied by 120 planes.<ref>[http://www.tashv.nm.ru/BoevojSostavSA/1943/19430701.html Combat Composition of the Soviet Army] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080421091838/http://tashv.nm.ru/BoevojSostavSA/1943/19430701.html |date=21 April 2008 }}, 1 July 1943 lists the 16th as part of 42nd Rifle Corps along with 202nd and 399th Rifle Divisions</ref> After suffering serious losses, the Soviet armies eventually emerged victorious.

After [[Oryol]] was captured as part of [[Operation Kutuzov]], the division was removed from the Central Front in August–September 1943.<ref name=":5" /> On September 28, the division was once more part of the army and was made part of the [[Kalinin Front]]'s [[4th Shock Army]], which soon became the [[1st Baltic Front]].<ref name=":5" />

During [[Operation Bagration]], the division was placed in the reserves.<ref name=":5" /> Along with the [[3rd Belorussian Front]], the 1st Baltic Front invaded [[Belarus]] and much of Lithuania.

The division was stationed there for one month, and reinforced with Lithuanian [[Conscription|forced conscripts]].

In mid-August the city of Šiauliai was hit by the German [[Šiauliai offensive]]. The [[Wehrmacht]] divisions were armed with 900 armoured vehicles and [[artillery]] pieces. For three days the 16th Division stood its ground, and in the end as the German attack ran out of steam the Division emerged victorious. On 31 October the division was awarded the [[Order of the Red Banner]] for "courage and valor" in breaking through German defenses west of Šiauliai.{{Sfn|Affairs Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Soviet Union|1967|p=532}}

=== 1945 ===
On 31 January 1945, the Lithuanian division received orders to join the fight against the Germans in the [[Courland Pocket]]. The German resistance was strong and elements of [[Army Group Courland]] did not surrender to the Soviets until 8–9 May at the [[end of World War II in Europe]].

The division was part of [[22nd Guards Rifle Corps]], [[6th Guards Army]] towards the end of the war on 1 May 1945.<ref>[[Combat composition of the Soviet Army]]</ref>

After the war, many former soldiers of the division's went to [[Palestine (region)|Palestine]].<ref name=":2" />
