The 246th Rifle Division was a Soviet Red Army rifle division formed from cadres of NKVD border and internal troops shortly after the German invasion. It fought around Kalinin, Rzhev, Kursk, northeastern Ukraine, Belarus, Poland and Silesia. Assigned to several armies and fronts, it served under the 60th Army from February 1944 into the postwar period. The division was disbanded in July after the end of fighting near Prague.
