SS as a security buffer for Germany. In 1940, the first manifestation of the
Germanic SS appeared in Flanders as the Allgemeene SS Vlaanderen to be
joined two-months later by the Dutch Nederlandsche SS and in May 1941 the
Norwegian Norges SS was formed. The final nation to contribute to the
Germanic SS was Denmark, whose Germansk Korpet (later called the Schalburg

transcended traditional political boundaries. While the SS leadership foresaw
an imperialistic and semi-autonomous relationship for the Nordic/Germanic
countries like Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway as co-bearers of a greater
Germanic empire, Hitler refused to grant them the same degree of
independence despite ongoing pressure from ranking members of the SS.

Books Ltd, 1990.), 71. (gornja, odnosno prva fotografija). S obzirom na moje poznavanje tematike, ne bih
rekao da su na frontu odlazili u tim svečanim odorama. No to se odnosi prije svega na Reichsdeutsche
postrojbe, moguč jest da se koji kontigent „probio“ u tim nepraktičnim odorama.
