After the capitulation of Yugoslavia, the VI Army Corps was relocated to Dalmatia and Croatia. Here they occupied the Governorate of Dalmatia and the Italian influence zone in the Independent State of Croatia. Units of the Corps took part from 9 October to 9 November 1941 in a vast anti-partisan action on the Serbo-Croatian border.[2]
