The idea of the Grail was a mixture of Persian symbolism, the Templar mystique of the order of knighthood, the idea of the Church of the Holy Spirit, and the society formed by the new nobility.

He and his disciples were excommunicated because they taught that good works, the Sacraments and spiritual practices had grown impotent, that monasticism was not a way to salvation, and that serious and aspiring souls were led astray by a false spiritual discipline whose end was self-seeking [44].

 Aberjona Press: Waffen-SS Encyclopedia
The SS system differed from that of the Heer in not requiring an Abitur (certificate generally gained upon matriculation from a Gymnasium, or academic high school, around age 19), and also in insisting that any man lacking military experience had to first serve time in the ranks.
Heer observers and training advisors were impressed by the SS-V and the Wehrmacht actively included the SS units (which were expanding through the creation of those supporting elements necessary for a ­division) in its plans.
Motor­ized units were perceived as vital to offensive operations, and thus SS-V units participated in the occupation of that part of Czecho­slovakia known to the Germans as the Sudetenland, the annexation of Austria, and the seizure of the rump of the Czech lands.

Richard Corfield was commander of a British expeditionary force, and the verse evokes his death at the battle of Dul Madoba between the British and Dervish forces in 1913.
