The 22nd Infantry Division, which soon became the 22nd Air Landing Division, was a specialized German infantry division in World War II. Its primary method of transportation was gliders. The division played a significant role in the development of modern day air assault operations.[1] Towards the end of the war, the formation was reshaped into the 22nd Volksgrenadier Division.
