The formation of a reserve division in Jinzhou was started in March 1982.[1] The order to reconstitute reserve formations was issued by the Central Military Commission of the People's Republic of China in September 1982. The Reserve Division of Jinzhou (Chinese: 锦州陆军预备役师) was formally activated on March 25, 1983, in Jinzhou, Liaoning as the first-ever reserve formation of the People's Liberation Army since 1958.[2] The division was then composed of:

As of its activation, the division was composed of 13,595 personnel, with 6 100 mm mortars, 6 122 mm howitzers, 4 85 mm guns, 6 107mm MRLs, 4 twin-37 mm AAAs, 4 twin-14.5 mm AA MGs, and 14 tractor vehicles.[6]

On February 1, 1986, the division was redesignated as the Reserve Infantry Division of Jinzhou(Chinese: 锦州陆军预备役步兵师).

In October 1999, the division was reorganized as the Reserve Logistic Support Brigade of Liaoning(Chinese: 辽宁陆军预备役后勤保障旅).[7]
