		Oskar Dirlewanger was recovering from his last wound at a hospital in Althausen, Bavaria, at the end of the war.
		He was disrated from colonel to captain and transfered to the SS Brigade 'Dirlewanger', a penal unit for felons under the command of SS-Oberführer Oskar Dirlewanger, himself a twice convicted rapist.
		The Dirlewanger unit's "warfare" had raised objections even among the regular SS and for a man like Momm being transfered to such a unit was akin to being sentenced to death.

		The Dirlewanger Battalion, also known as "Sonderkommando (special commando) Dirlewanger" was perhaps the least understood, but at the same time the most notorious German SS anti-partisan unit in World War II.
		Wherever the Dirlewanger unit - named for and led by Oskar Dirlewanger - operated, corruption and rape formed an every-day part of life and indiscriminate slaughter, beatings and looting were rife.
		From there Dirlewanger spent two years combating partisans in central Russia, giving no quarter and expecting none in return, during vicious fighting against an elusive foe in the midst of inhospitable swamps and dismal forests.

		The Dirlewanger Brigade was a Waffen-SS unit raised by SS-Obergruppenfuehrer Gottlob Berger, under the command of a personal friend and convicted poacher/pederast SS-Oberfuehrer Oskar Dirlewanger.
		Dirlewanger and his men treated their time in Warsaw as an opportunity to rape and loot, much to the disgust of the regular German officers and soldiers trying to fight a battle against the Polish Home Army.
		Dirlewanger's brigade was later used in a series of actions against the Red Army to no effect--his men were either killed expeditiously by the Russians or deserted.

		SS Sonderkommando Dirlewanger was originally formed from convicted poachers, but eventually grew to include many who were convicted of various crimes or had fallen from grace.
		Dirlewanger's story in Warsaw is better known, and the chapter on his murder by French soldiers just after the end of the war is informative.
		There was so much to be tackled - Dirlewanger's life, his unit's formation, his friends in high SS-places, his own 'sex-crimes', the numerous witnesses on German, Polish, Russian, Partisan sides, the excesses, the 'fight-or-die' fanatical courage of his gang under fire, the brutality and debauchery, the 'recruitment' of all sorts including concentration camp prisoners.

		We see how Dirlewanger, the son of a lawyer enlists in the army in World War One, is wounded several times and after the war takes an active role in defeating communist insurgents.
		Particular attention is devoted to the mysterious end of Dirlewanger himself who may have been murdered in a French prison or, as some have said, had enlisted in the French Foreign Legion and later lived his final years in Egypt.
		We learn little about his childhood or personal life, though we can guess that he was never married (because its never mentioned that he ever was) and that he had a fanatical degree of loyalty to the party.

		U.S.S.R. : Khatyn: The SS unit which swept on the Russian village of Khatyn, near Minsk, was very unusual, even by Nazi standards; it had been formed from German criminals released from concentration camps.
		Commanded by SS Major-General Oskar Dirlewanger, the SS men systematically murdered all but one of the 150 villagers and burned the village to the ground.
		The atrocity is intended to deter villagers from giving food and shelter to the partisans, about 150,000 of whom are in action behind enemy lines.
