Deuerling is a municipality in the district of Regensburg in Bavaria in Germany.

On April 24, 1945, Lieutenant Colonel David H. Arp from Major General Stanley Eric Reinhart’s Headquarters Staff searched for a location to set up the Division Command Post from which the assault crossing of the Danube River can be properly supervised and coordinated. He chose Deuerling. The crossing was accomplished in record time.
