I divided the next job into several main parts. At first I will do a general description of the one who had to be to get into the SS. Then I will talk about the history of Waffen SS from the moment of its creation to the most important battles at the fronts, a brief description of the most famous divisions and information on the most important actions in which these units participated. In the end, I decided to very superficially describe the dependencies that the SS troops were subjected to, and devote a few words to the murder committed by this elite division.
As soon as the SS was founded, it became known that this organization, whose membership would be prestigious. So, the initial requirements were very high. The candidate, applying, for example, on the "Leibstandard Adolf Hitler", should have been an increase of at least 180 cm, show the features of the Aryan race - documenting the Aryan origin until 1800. Men older than 23 years have not been allowed. It was also not allowed to wear glasses. Then the candidates passed a series of physical tests, a 20-minute inspection of intelligence and dictation. Young people studied in the famous Nazi Junkers schools in Bad Tolz and Braunschweig. Training included ideological and military courses. 400 officers studied annually. The 9th Reichswell Regiment was engaged in learning Lybstartart Adolf Hitler.
The beginning of Waffen SS can be considered 1933. It was then that the division "Leibstandard SS - Adolf Hitler" was created. His uniqueness was that he did not obey the army or the police. Initially, it was only 100 members, and they served as Hitler's bodyguards. Another important date in the history of the SS is its significant development in 1936. Then SS was divided into two groups. One of them is SS VerfugungStruppen (Disposable SS units), and the other - SS Totenkopfverbande (Dead Forces) - both are paid from the budget of the Ministry of the Interior.
Theodore Eike became commander of the unit. The troops themselves did not make up the military unit. Most of the time she was given a dirty job. They performed grampics and cleaning. Soldiers of this formation served in concentration camps. During the Polish campaign, they with particular cruelty shot Jews and other enemies of the state. SS Totenkopfverbande soldiers were poorly trained, nevertheless, a division was created, in which theodore Eyka stood, who had no idea about military maneuvers. A lot of articles were written about this division, and this short article is intended only to present and outline the entire history of Waffen SS in general. Looking for wife?
