	Schutzstaffel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fall of the SS Upon the suicide of Adolf Hitler, and the assumption of Karl Dönitz as the new President of Germany, one of the first official acts of the new government was to abolish the SS.
		SS doctors, in particular, were marked as war criminals due to the wide range of human medical experimentation which had been conducted during the Second World War as well as the role SS doctors had played in the gas chamber selections of the Holocaust.
		The SS response to the German legal establishment was to petition the Reich Ministry of Justice to pass an act which removed the SS, and all of its members, from the jurisdiction of the civilian courts.

		The latter turned a blind eye when Hitler used SS men to murderously purge the SA leadership on 20 June 1934 in the “Night of the Long Knives.” Hitler had made a gesture to the Reichswehr, demonstrating that it was the armed force for Germany’s future instead of the SA.

		The so-called “classic” SS Divisions—SS-LAH (raised to a division 1941), SS-Das Reich, SS-Totenkopf, and SS-Wiking—began receiving small quantities of ethnic German replacements by the spring of 1942, and as a rule, considered them inferior, since they were not the fine physical specimens of the pre-war era.

		The SS rank insignia on the collar usually consisted of the SS runes or a special division insignia[1] on the right patch and the actual rank-indicator patch on the left.
