Blue Division [SEP] dissolved or abolished
.
The Blue Division faced a major Soviet attempt to break the siege of Leningrad in February 1943, when the 55th Army of the Soviet forces, reinvigorated after the victory at Stalingrad, attacked the Spanish positions at the Battle of Krasny Bor, near the main Moscow-Leningrad road. Despite very heavy casualties, the Spaniards were able to hold their ground against a Russian force seven times larger and supported by tanks. The assault was contained and the siege of Leningrad was maintained for a further year. The division remained on
until 1968 when they dissolved. However, when the club were resurrected in 2015 they chose to play in a white shirt with blue strips. Now in 2016 they returned to their original colours black and white.
