The division was formed on 17 April 1941, just 2 months before Operation Barbarossa. It was assigned to the Antonescu Army Group as part of the Romanian Cavalry Corps (or RCC), fighting alongside the German 11th Army. Operating as several mobile groups, the division took part in the advance into Bessarabia, the area the Russians had taken from Romania in 1939.
