Suggested correction of inconsistency in section - War against the Soviet Union

In the 9th paragraph of this section it is stated that:

"On 20 April 1943, he was appointed commander of the SS Cavalry Division.[42](...)"

By March 1942 the SS Cavalry Brigade had formed the cadre for the creation of the 8th SS Cavalry Division Florian Geyer. The names are regularly used interchangeably as the 8th SS Cavalry is seen as THE successor the SS Cavalry Brigade but to my knowledge there never was a SS Cavalry DIVISION named as such. Fegelein had several stints in the brigade unit and its successors. On the date mentioned in the section of the article for sure it was the 8th SS - so my suggestion would be to change that to reflect it:

"On 20 April 1943, he was appointed commander of the SS 8th SS Cavalry Division Florian Geyer.[42](...)"

This is also consistent with the link - which goes to the 8th Division page and not its precursor SS Cavalry Brigade as well as the footnote.
