Along with its "sister", the <a href="/wiki/65th_Guards_Rifle_Division" title="65th Guards Rifle Division">65th Guards Rifle Division</a>, the 56th was formed "out of sequence", that is, many Guards rifle divisions were higher numbered and formed earlier than the 56th. The division was immediately assigned to the <a href="/w/index.php?title=19th_Guards_Rifle_Corps&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="19th Guards Rifle Corps (page does not exist)">19th Guards Rifle Corps</a> of the <a href="/wiki/10th_Guards_Army" title="10th Guards Army">10th Guards Army</a> and remained under those headquarters for the duration of the war. It first saw action in <a href="/wiki/Western_Front_(Soviet_Union)" title="Western Front (Soviet Union)">Western Front's</a> summer offensive, Operation Suvorov. On September 8 the 254th Guards Rifle Regiment was given the honorific title "in the name of <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Matrosov" title="Alexander Matrosov">Aleksandr Matrosov</a>" and on September 25 the division as a whole was awarded the honorific "<a href="/wiki/Smolensk" title="Smolensk">Smolensk</a>" for its role in the liberation of that city. During the winter of 1943-44 it took part in the stubborn fighting north and east of <a href="/wiki/Vitebsk" title="Vitebsk">Vitebsk</a>, first in Western and later in <a href="/wiki/2nd_Baltic_Front" title="2nd Baltic Front">2nd Baltic Front</a>. During the following summer offensives it helped break through the defenses of the German <a href="/wiki/Panther%E2%80%93Wotan_line" title="Panther–Wotan line">Panther Line</a> and advanced into the Baltic states, eventually being decorated with the <a href="/wiki/Order_of_the_Red_Banner" title="Order of the Red Banner">Order of the Red Banner</a> after the liberation of <a href="/wiki/Riga" title="Riga">Riga</a>. For the rest of the war it was part of the forces blockading the remnants of German Army Group North in the Courland Pocket in Latvia, eventually in <a href="/wiki/Leningrad_Front" title="Leningrad Front">Leningrad Front</a>.

On September 16 the 10th Guards Army, now led by 15th Guards Corps, failed to make any substantive gains. However it was clear by the end of the day that IX Corps was close to breaking and during the night it fell back to the next defensive line, which was mostly incomplete. Sokolovsky ordered a pursuit to approach Smolensk from the south with the 10th Guards and 68th Armies and most of his armor. The retreat of the 330th Infantry was covered by the <a href="/wiki/Tiger_I" title="Tiger I">Tiger</a> tanks of heavy <i>Panzer-Abteilung</i> 505. Supply problems forced the Soviet armies to pause for a few days outside Smolensk before making the final push. On the morning of September 22 that push began and 68th Army made a clear breakthrough southeast of the city. Late on the 23rd German 4th Army signalled the evacuation of Smolensk. During the next day the Soviet forces probed the German defenses but did not begin their attacks until nightfall. By 0600 hours on September 25 most of Smolensk was liberated, although much of it was destroyed or damaged.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEForczyk201976–85_21-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEForczyk201976–85-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In recognition of its part in this battle the division was awarded a battle honor: </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}</style><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>"SMOLENSK"... 56th Guards Rifle Division (Colonel Kolobutin, Anatolii Ivanovich)...

After a fast regrouping by 10th Guards Army the offensive was resumed the next day with the 22nd Guards leading the Corps on the left flank. Following an 85-minute artillery preparation that division stepped off, but almost immediately stalled due to the ineffectiveness of the artillery and armor.
