The Czech built Panzer 38(t) tank, following its successful service in Poland and France, next saw service during Operation Barbarossa with the 7th, 8th, 12th, 19th, and 20th, Panzer Divisions.
12. Panzerdivision was reorganised from a motorised infantry division in October 1940. It participated in Operation Barbarossa, taking part in the drive towards Leningrad. It suffered heavy casualties during the Soviet counter offensive in the winter of 1941–42, after which the division was withdrawn to Estonia for a refit.
19. Panzerdivision converted in November 1940 from an infantry division. It gained Panzer-Regiment 27, transferring one infantry regiment to the also forming 20. Panzerdivision. It took part in Operation Barbarossa in June 1941, suffering such heavy casualties in the first two months that one of its three tank battalions had to be disbanded by August. It fought around Velikiye Luki, advancing in the central sector of the front, before participating in the Battle of Moscow. Further losses during the defensive operations in the winter of 1941–42 forced the division to disbanded another tank battalion, reducing it to just one.
20. Panzerdivision was formed in October 1940 from 59th Infantry Regiment of 19. Infanteriedivision, while various tank replacement battalions provided personnel for its new Panzer-Regiment 21. During Operation Barbarossa it was attached to Army Group Centre, in the front echelon of attack during the series of advances on Minsk, Smolensk, and when took part in the attack on Moscow.
