Thanks for this one! Helps to add up a piece of family history. My grandfather obviously entered the ranks of the SS rather early (SS-Membership No. 967). Due to your timeline that would be probably sometime after 1928 but rather long before Himmler added thousands to that branch. A bit more to the puzzle. From 3 old photographs I figured out that he was member of an MP (Feldgendarmerie) Platoon or Company attached to one of the Totenkopf-Divisions and took part in the battle of Charkov.

By your comments, he entered the Waffen-SS with Totenkopf (3rd Waffen-SS Division) probably upon it's formation in October 1939. With respect, you're sure of his SS#? Himmler's was 168; could they have known each other?

Contrary to popular belief, the SS did not wear the black parade uniform after 1934 in local settings. Hollywood has fed this myth even during wartime, with films like Hitler’s Madmen(1943), depicting the SS in black uniforms at all times. This continues even today.

Thank you for the video! I wonder if you can cover the SS from after 34 up until 39. I've tried to follow its development but it can be very confusing as so many changes occurred in those years as Himmler and Heydrich swallowed up so many other police forces in Germany. Also, can anyone recommend a decent book on the development in the prewar SS?

He wished it to be separate from the "suspect mass" of the party, including the paramilitary Sturmabteilung ("Storm Battalion"; SA), which he did not trust."

@@rickarmknecht8903 Yes but it was not totally separate, as in fully independent of the SA. It was an elite unit within the SA that was meant to bypass the SA chain of command and report to Hitler directly. Not until 1934 and the Night of the Long Knives was the SS finally broken off from the SA and made totally separate.
Whenever I read history or listen to your excellent KZread channel programming, I think of the "what if" scenario. What would the world be like in the 21st century if one is assassinations of Hitler had succeeded. What would Germany be like what effect on the Communist revolution, what impact on Europe It certainly would be a different world, It's rather mindnumbing.

I don't think Rohm's orientation was a secret, everyone knew, and he was pretty open about his exploits with young SA men. When he went to, I think it was Bolivia as a military advisor, he was basically open about it there too!

Factual leader of SA was Ernst Rohm and that was problem for Hitler, because he had close to none authority over them.
