This is the music school for bonny lads in the SS!

Both - fanatically good soldiers, highly trained, ruthless and elite.

Also indoctrinated with the myth of themselves as ubermensch (including the overseas elements like the Norwegians, Danes etc) and therefore perpetrators of the most heinous crimes, including POW massacres and providing personnel for the Einsatzgruppen, ghetto clearance and the camps.

Lokk up Lidice or Oradour to see if the Waffen SS can be distinguished from the Einsatzgruppen...

The military wing of the SS and responsible for the deaths of millions civilians.

No-one who was a frontline member of that organisation can ever say they didn't want to be a part of what they were doing. You had to volunteer to join the SS.

That isnt true, many were conscripted.
 
Indeed. I am also fascinated by old tunnels. Been in one or two anarl..:oops:

Get yourself to Colditz, they have re-opened the old tunnels, well worth

the visit. Its an old peoples home now (or it was the last time l was there).
 
This thread is dying on its arse. Parsnip this shite...

which way do you want it to go

after the dutch were invaded the new ss volunteers were so plentiful the ss had to open a new training camp or the ss opening up the bellies of pregnant women route?

Go and lie down, you f***ing piss tank!
 
A Polish mate told me his Grandparents preferred the rule of the SS to the Russians who allegedly saved them.
 
Think something like 65% weren't Germans with the largest proportions made up of ther baltic states such as lituania etc one of the reasons why there was so many atrocoties in Russia and then Stalin killed many in the baltics after the war in revenge.

I believe holland had the largest contingent of men fighting under the SS banner.
 
Without reading every post.... The SS were indeed a brutal part of the nazi regime and were responsible for some horrible crimes against pow's, civilians and jews. They also produced some stunning results on the battlefield. There were many different division of the SS ie Liebstandarte, Das Reich etc but there were indeed Ukrainian ones, Dutch and a few others and according to a book I read a small British SS detatchment. Can't remember the name of the book but it was superb

They were know as the British Free Corp. I made reference to them earlier in the thread.
