The Szent László Infantry Division formed
in the final year of World War II. It was made up of a mix of army and air
force personnel. The division saw action at Budapest, in western Hungary, and
in southeastern Austria. Usually in stop gap operations supporting their German
allies. The unit took heavy casualties in this – the last year of fighting
before they surrendered to the British at the end of the war.
