		The wearing of the SS runes on the collar was forbidden, with several of these formations wearing a national insignia instead.
		The combat ability of the divisions der SS varied greatly, with the Latvian, French and Estonian formations perfoming exceptionally and the Croatian and Albanian units perfoming poorly.
		The actions of Himmler and the Nazi heirarchy in attaching the SS combat divisions to the same overall command of as the Allgemeine SS, Concentration Camps and Einsatzgruppen meant that such a decision was inevitable.

		In March 1944 Das Reich was pulled out and sent to France in anticipation of the impending Allied invasion.
		When the invasion came, Das Reich's march north to Normandy was slowed by Resistance activity and it reacted savagely, shooting and hanging civilians and cold-bloodedly killing all 650 men, women, and children in the village of Oradour.
		But Das Reich was rebuilt and began the Battle of the Bulge at nearly full strength, where it was once again shattered.

		The 2nd SS was not an Einsatz-commando and was a combat unit, however, I find it hard to believe that the tip of Hitler's ideological spear that was thrust into the Soviet Union spent their off hours handing out bread and soup to Russian children.
		Lucas's unit history of the Das Reich SS Panzer Division covers the activities of the unit from the point of its formation as a quasi-private Nazi party band of hoods through its transformation during the war into one of the most fearsome military machines yet deployed.
		The attacking SS forces are described as heroically 'exposing themselve to a Polish fire which struck them as soon as they began their uphill advance.' What emerges from this account is a story that is only partly told.

	Saving Private Ryan: 2nd SS Panzer Division
		Originally formed on October 19, 1939 as the "Verfugungs" Division, this unit was redesignated as the 2nd SS Panzer Division ("Das Reich") in late 1943.
		The division should have taken approximately three days to reach northern France by rail, but the efforts of French resistance fighters, as well as Allied air superiority, made the move much slower, as the Germans were forced to move overland by road.
		Captain Miller's squad encountered a recon element from the 2nd SS Panzer Division outside of the French village of Ramelle on June 13, 1944.

		The average manpower of an SS-Panzer division was about 19,000, but the largest that I have seen was 22,300 for Leibstandarte and the smallest around 3000 for the later Divisions such as 38th SS-Grenadier Division Nibelungen.
		Das Reich had a total of 69, more than any other SS-Division (the next was Leibstandarte with 58 and some of the SS Divisions formed later on in the war had none).
		Das Reich in June 1944 was close to its full staff complement and would have had about 19,200 men in total.
