Who can tell us something about the post-war situation of Zepuditrich? Especially his funeral?

Dietrich is one of the most important generals in the SS, and he has a special relationship with Hitler himself.

In the early days of the Nazi movement, he was Hitler's personal bodyguard.

Dietrich's real name is josef dietrich, and most military history lovers are more familiar with his nickname Zep.

Sepp Dietrich. This person was born in1May 2, 892, a small village in Schwaben, southern Germany.

. Svalbard was originally a small state in southern Germany, but it was already a province in Bavaria. The German Empire. Also known as SECOND REICH

It was only unified by Prussia more than 20 years ago. Generally speaking, "Germany" is still a new concept, which is within the Germans.

Regional concept is also very heavy, including Bavarians in South Germany, Rhineland in the west and Prussia in the Middle East.

Then three big pieces. Dietrich's family is very poor. He only went to school for eight years, and then he left home to travel and went to the University of North Italy.

Jae-Il Lee worked as a page in a hotel for several years, and then wandered around Austria and Switzerland while working. 19.

1 1 19 years old and returned to his hometown.

Many World War II history books mention Dietrich's1911-1914 kinds of butchers, which is based on Dietrich's book.

After the war, the American troops who interrogated him told him, but in fact Dietrich had many memories of his early life at that time.

Not reliable, this is an example (two other examples will be mentioned later). His biographer checked by messenger.

Local records show that Dietrich actually worked in a bakery for the past three years. Maybe Dietrich hoped.

The profession of "butcher" gives the impression of being tough.

19 14 When World War I broke out, Dietrich was enlisted in the Sixth German Army under the command of the Bavarian Crown Prince.

As a gunner, he was wounded twice in the western front and won the second-class iron cross. World War I was based on trench machine guns.

In the static war, both sides of the war have been racking their brains for how to break through the trench defense system. Later, Britain invented

New weapons and tanks were introduced, but Germany focused on combining traditional arms to form an elite commando "Stu".

Rmtrup "made a breakthrough. A typical assault battalion consists of infantry and combat engineering, equipped with infantry guns and trenches.

Trench mortars, etc. At that time, each German army on the Western Front had at least one commando battalion. Deidre

Joined the commando as a gunner in the late war. In the last stage of the war, he joined one of the few German tank soldiers.

Become a tank gunner. Dietrich later boasted to his American interrogators that he was a German cavalry during World War I ... in fact.

His experience as a tank soldier in World War I can make him proud-German tank forces were small in World War I, he thought.

Think about how many famous German tank generals served in the first-line tank units in World War I?

Even guderian, the originator of the German Blitzkrieg, was a communications officer during World War I. ..

After the defeat of Germany in World War I, Dietrich retired and went home to join the right-wing militia "Freedom Army" (F.

Reikorp), and his official occupation is the police. Contrary to the Nazi Party's later propaganda, Dietrich did not actually

There was a "beer hall coup" in Munich 1923 next to Hitler, because until 1927 to 1928, Di

Tracy has just joined the Nazi Party and the SS. From his party emblem number is 890 15, and the SS number is 1 177.

Thus, Dietrich was not the first Nazi party member or a member of the SS. But Dietrich I

When he joined the Nazi Party, he was highly valued by Hitler and became his driver and personal bodyguard. There are many reasons, Dieter.

Rich's own poor background, straightforward and humorous personality, and his experience as a soldier and participating in the right-wing militia,

All these decided that he had a simple identity with the ideology of the Nazi Party, while Dietrich had little education and intelligence.

It's not prominent either. Hitler was more likely to trust such people.

1933 After the Nazi Party came to power, the SS, as the official guard of the Reich Chancellery, expanded its regulations.

Model, compiled into "Adolf Hitler's Leibstandarte", led by Dietrich. The selection criteria for this flag protection team are ten.

Strict score: all soldiers must be above 180 cm in height, and later the standard was raised to 184 cm, and they must be "yuan"

First, "absolute loyalty", soldiers must prove that their family can be traced back to 1800 without non-Aryan descent, and officers must prove this.

To 1750. 1934, the armed forces in the ss continued to expand, forming four flag teams called "Hitler"

"Leibstandarte", "Germany", "Germanic" and "Fuehrer". However, due to the limited strength, the "Fuehrer" flag team has not returned.

Established. These four flag teams are collectively called SS-VT, which is German verfugungstruppe and can probably be translated into special purpose.

SS-VT is the predecessor of SS, and later it was officially renamed as Waffen-SS. In the meantime,

The organization and training of SS -VT is very close to that of the regular army. A group of Wehrmacht officers joined the SS, bringing with them.

The SS lacked military experience. There are two people who deserve special mention. One is Paul. Hauser, retired.

German lieutenant general, after joining the SS, opened the SS officer school and was soon appointed as the director of SS -VT.

Since then, he has become the first member of the SS. He was the first commander, commander and company commander of the SS, and later in the West.

As the commander of the G Army Group, Line is the highest position among SS generals. The other was Steiner, who joined the SS.

The army served as the director of education of the General Staff, and later served as the company commander of the 3rd Armored Army in World War II. In the ss

Dietrich is the only one of the three highest-ranking people who has never been an officer of the German General Staff, but

As Hitler's "bodyguard commander", he is the most trusted. The relationship between Dietrich and Himmler, the leader of SS.

It's also very interesting. Dietrich himself is simple-minded, not a "political animal", plus his World War I veterans.

Experience, he is more willing to see the ss as a member of the wehrmacht, rather than a member of the ordinary ss.

Coupled with the direct obedience to Hitler at ordinary times, it is inevitable that it is a bit arrogant and inevitably contradicts Himmler.

Fortunately, Himmler saw Dietrich's position beside Hitler, and he also gave up three points. Dietrich and the Third Emperor

Other key figures in China are generally on good terms, such as Speer, Bowman and Goebbels. No specific information.

This shows that Dietrich and Goering have a lot of contacts.

The flag team of the SS is equivalent to a regiment. In the process of Germany's annexation of Austria, Dietrich's "Hitler police"

"Go Team" is directly under the 16 Panzer Corps in guderian. 1939 World War II broke out. In the battle of Poland, the Germans split.

G's northern army group (under the jurisdiction of Cushler's third army group and Kruger's fourth army group), Lunsted's southern army group.

The army group (under the jurisdiction of Lecchenau 10, blasco Weitz 8, Liszt 14) was attacked.

Poland. Dietrich's Leibstandarte Division originally belonged to the Eighth Army 13 Army, and its commander was the later Wedges.

He was also promoted to German Marshal, and later transferred to the mechanized main force of the Southern Army Group 10 Army. In Poland

In this campaign, the SS exposed the weaknesses of lack of combat experience, insufficient training and lack of commanders and staff officers.

Although the Leibstandarte was well-equipped and the officers and men had high morale, they repeatedly fell behind the time set by their superiors after the war.

Between the tables, even surrounded by Polish troops in a short time, they had to rely on defense forces to get out of trouble. in addition

SS soldiers like shooting so much that they shoot first when they see anything, wasting a lot of ammunition.

It is a typical performance of inexperienced recruits. Fortunately, on the whole, the Polish campaign was devastating and won quickly.

An overwhelming victory, so the SS finally didn't have much exhibition. Fortunately, Dietrich

However, he doesn't have the necessary staff experience to command a regiment, but he has an excellent chief of staff transferred from the National Defence Force.

Bitrich. Bitrich later succeeded Hauser as commander of the second SS Panzer Corps in the late World War II.

British Montgomery's outstanding performance in the market-garden battle really made the British airborne troops suffer, that is

War in the movie Far Bridge.

In the Polish campaign, the Leibstandarte division committed atrocities of abusing prisoners and killing civilians, which would be beneficial in the war.

The first of several similar atrocities. But to be fair, the atrocities committed by SS troops are far more than that.

Wehrmacht, but with the special action team in the ordinary SS (responsible for destroying the Jews in the occupied areas) and the skeleton troops (tube)

Compared with organized and purposeful slaughter, it is far from it. After all, the Germans are regular troops.

Team, pay attention to strict military discipline, after the Polish campaign, the internal investigation of the SS war atrocities has been launched, and it can't afford it.

Blasco Witz, commander-in-chief of the Eighth Army of the occupying forces, ordered Dietrich to be arrested and handed over to the military department.

Court. Of course, with Hitler's intervention, this matter went away. Blasco Witz offended Hope because of this.

Tyler, he fell out of favor from now on. Look at the list of German marshals and you will know all the army groups and army groups in the Polish campaign.

Commanders are all the first marshals promoted to 1940, except blasco witz. And Blaskovic.

Later, he never got the chance to be promoted to marshal. Later, he commanded the G Army Group on the Western Front and fought against the Allies.

In the French War of 1940, Dietrich's Leibstandarte was organized in Bok's B Army Group to conquer the Netherlands first.

Lan, and then attack the French main force from the north. In the French war, the Leibstandarte performed well and began to emerge.

Later, it became the symbol of the German ace army, but it was not impeccable. Flag when attacking Rotterdam, the capital of the Netherlands.

This team once made a fool of itself. At that time, the Germans issued an ultimatum to Rotterdam, and the Dutch army agreed to surrender, but because

Communication was interrupted, and it was too late to inform the German Air Force, so Rotterdam was bombed. Since then, German airborne troops

Ordinary students go to the town to arrange for the Dutch army to surrender. Everything went well, but he got into a mess.

The SS flag that rushed into the city was shot and seriously injured 3! The student later became a general, commanding the western front.

Paratrooper army, and served as commander of G army for a short time.

The accident was an accident, but Dietrich and his Leibstandarte division performed well in the French war.

Especially when Dietrich received Hitler's order to stop in Dunkirk, he could make his own decisions.

Continue to attack, even the commander guderian was surprised (AB two army groups met at that time, and the Leibstandarte division temporarily.

Guderian 19 Panzer Corps Command was transferred to a group army). Until after the war, Dietrich and guderian's private.

The relationship is very good, especially after the war, guderian became the main strategic theorist of the New West German Defence Force.

Dietrich helped.

After the end of the French war, the SS was enlarged on a large scale, and the original German, Fuehrer and Germanic flag teams merged.

Into the first SS division-the second SS "Imperial" division, with Hauzer as the teacher. In addition, parallel to the SS

Another independent unit of the SS, responsible for the skeleton unit of the concentration camp, also transferred personnel to form a division to join the SS.

The third SS Skull Division was led by Ike, the leader of Skull Army (he was on the eastern plane of 1943).

Died in a plane crash, and some people say it was shot down by the Soviet Union). Skeleton division has no combat experience from teachers to soldiers.

Check, the performance in the battle is worse than that of the Leibstandarte Division and Imperial Division, and it will not mature until the end of 1942. In addition, Germany

The domestic police were also controlled by the SS, and the personnel were transferred from the police station to the fourth "police" division of the SS. Attention,

The designation of SS Division 1 is vacant, and of course it is reserved for the Leibstandarte Division. But at that time, the Leibstandarte Division was only expanded by the regiment.

Into a mechanized brigade, the brigade commander is still Dietrich.

194 1 year, the Germans attacked the balkans before launching the eastern war, and Dietrich commanded the flag brigade.

Blink of an eye in the formation of Marshal Liszt 12 Army Yugoslavia and Greece. What really branded the national flag guard was this war.

Mature, can be called the German elite trump card. In particular, the Leibstandarte division, as a pioneer of German armor, boldly put it on.

The Pindus Mountains in central Greece, with extremely complicated terrain, broke through the barrier of being easy to defend but difficult to attack and plunged into it.

Take the main force of the Greek army as an example. They cut off the confrontation between western Greece and Italian troops on the Albanian border and eastern Greece.

Between the British expeditionary forces commanded by Nelson. The main force of the Greek army was surrounded and Dietrich accepted it on behalf of Germany.

The surrender of General Tso Laclau, commander of the Greek army. Then go straight to the hot spring pass, forcing the British expeditionary force to retreat from the sea.

From Greece. Since then, the Leibstandarte Division has been promoted to the armored infantry division of SS 1 "Adolf Hitler Leibstandarte".

Private adolf Hitler.

1 941when the Soviet-German war broke out in June, the Lach division was armored in the southern army group of Marshal Rumsfeld.

The regiment once again played a pioneering role and participated in the battle of Uman encirclement. But Dietrich didn't.

The opportunity to participate in the largest encirclement and suppression campaign in Kiev on the Eastern Front, but the 1 1 army led by Schubert crossed Kiev eastward.

Attack rostov. At this time, the Lach division is already the elite trump card of the German army, but please note that the Lach division is still.

Not an armored division, but an armored infantry division. 1941July, Dietrich won the Knights Iron Cross.

The 40th German officer to receive this medal. Half a year later, due to Rostov's victory, Dietrich was at Knight's Cross Station.

Oak leaves were added to the medal, which became 4 1 Germany.

After the severe winter in Russia, the SS 1LAH Division, the 2nd Imperial Division and the 3rd Skull Division retreated.

Battlefield, shipped to France,1July 942, co-edited as the first SS Panzer Corps, because it is the only SS Panzer Corps.

Army, no digital serial number, commander is Hauser. At the same time, LAH division was adapted from armored infantry division to armored Grenade throwing division.

Strategist A netizen once asked me about the establishment of the German Panzergrenadier Division. The following is the attachment of LAH branch adapted by the walker.

Units added when you are a grenadier division. Yes, the division's tank battalion was expanded into an armored regiment, with two tank battalions under its jurisdiction, each of which

The tank battalion consists of three ordinary tank companies, a Tiger heavy tank company and an armored engineering company. In addition, the division has two throws.

Bomb regiment, each regiment is 3 armored infantry battalions equipped with armored transport vehicles. Another artillery regiment, including four battalions,

Two equipped 105 mm cannon, 1 150 mm cannon, and the other one has both guns. Of course, division Lach is a German army.

The key equipment division is better than the general army grenadier division, but it can also be seen that the grenadier division and

The main difference between armored divisions is the number of tanks and infantry. (PS, finally changed LAH division in March 1944.

As an armored division, Dietrich was no longer a teacher.

When the Panzer Corps returned to the Eastern Front, it was already after the Battle of Stalingrad, and Marshal Manstein miraculously

It has avoided the total collapse of the southern wing of Germany, and is slowly retreating backwards, luring Soviet troops to extend the front. SS armored forces

Because it is a cutting-edge force, it participated in the Kharkov counterattack as the main force and reoccupied Kharkov. Here,

Dietrich's Lah division created another atrocity of killing the wounded in the Soviet field hospital. Because of the battle of kharkov

1943 In February, Dietrich won the Knights Cross double sword, ranking 26th in the German army.

This honorary officer.

1943 The highlight of the Soviet-German battlefield was the Battle of Kursk, in which Division Lacher was the protagonist and fought that World War II.

The biggest tank battle in China, the battle of Prokhovka. But Dietrich himself was not involved. because

Hitler decided to organize the Second Panzer Corps, with Dietrich as the commander, with the designation 1 Panzer Corps.

Hauser's Panzer Corps was named the Panzer Corps of the Second SS. So Dietrich returned to France,

There are two tasks, one is to transfer cadres from LAH Division to form a new SS 12 "Hitler Youth League" Division, and the other is

Is to form his army. From the outbreak of the Soviet-German war to the end of the war, Dietrich's chief of staff has been Ke.

Lemerre, 194 1 years ago, was an officer of the General Staff of the National Defence Force, and he had rich working experience in the headquarters.

It can just make up for Dietrich's lack of military expertise.

1 In July 943, Dietrich's Panzer Corps1was formally established in Berlin. When Italy surrendered, Greece

Taylor ordered Marshal Kesselring, commander-in-chief of the Southern Line, to fight with the Allies at the front line, and sat Rommel's army group B headquarters down.

In northern Italy, the situation in the rear was suppressed and Dietrich's military command was also assigned to Rommel. But Dieter,

Ricky is just sitting at Brenner Pass in the Alps on the German-Italian border, and there are no available troops under his command. He is a

Army of one. (LAH division has been transferred from Russia to Italy at this time, but it is not under the command of Dietrich, but belongs to Hao.

Zell's Second SS Panzer Corps). After the situation in Italy calmed down, Rommel and Dietrich both went to France.

Prepare to counterattack the expected allied landing operations. Dietrich's 1 panzer corps belongs to the western panzer cluster.

He was in charge of the 12 Hitler Youth Division of the SS, the 17 Bereken Division and the 2nd Armored Division of the Army.

It's interesting to see the relationship between Dietrich and Rommel. Because Dietrich has been away from Hitt for several years.

Le side, and personally experienced the overwhelming strength, firepower and air superiority of the Allies, so I fully sympathize with Rommel.

The idea of making peace with other army generals and allied forces. Whether Rommel joined the anti-Hitler conspiracy,

This historical field is inconclusive. Rommel was forced to death by Hitler, and his chief of staff, Paidar, was a cabal.

Member, insisted that Rommel was anti-Hitler after the war, this view was initially adopted by almost all historians, but Dai

Vi Owen questioned this in his biography of Rommel. But Rommel's idea of making peace with the West is indeed certain.

There is no doubt about it. And there is evidence that Dietrich holds the same view. In Normandy, Dietrich cooperated with Rommel.

Not bad, but Dietrich confronted his American troops after the war and said Rommel, "Rommel came from a newspaper.

Hero, he doesn't know anything about tank warfare, because he hasn't fought on the Eastern Front! All he has to do is start with the tank guns.

Tower leaned out of the upper body, waving the marshal's power war and shouting that I am the king of Africa! "。 This evaluation is obviously unfair.

Yes, but it reflects that German commanders on the Eastern Front look down on their colleagues who have never fought on the Eastern Front.

During the 1944 Normandy landing, Dietrich's army managed the SS Hitler Youth Division and the Wehrmacht Armored Forces.

Coach division (the division commander is bayerlein, former chief of staff of African armored forces), and the National Defence Force 2 1 armored division. Later Dietrich's

The lach division of the old army was also transferred to his command. At that time, the main forces of German armored forces were all concentrated in northern England.

Including Dietrich's 1 and Hauser's No.2 (with SS 9 Hohenstaufen and SS 10 Frondersburg),

The SS and the 47th Panzer Corps. When Dole, commander of the Army's Seventh Army defending Normandy,

When Mann died of a heart attack, Hauser was promoted to commander of the army, led by Bitterich, Dietrich's former chief of staff.

Succeeded as commander of the Second Armored Guard. Although the Germans suffered heavy losses, they relied on skilled combat skills and Norman.

The favorable terrain of the shrub enclosure in the bottom area blocked all the breakthrough attempts of Montgomery, England for a long time.

Wei Teman of LAH Division once created a battle case in which a tank defeated a British tank battalion, and this British tank

This battalion still belongs to the elite 7th Armored Division, and it is called "Desert Rat" in North Africa. Dietrich because of his success

He won the Diamond Medal of the Knight's Cross in the defensive battle and became the 26th. He won the highest German military award for "Oak Tree".

Ye, double sword, diamond knight iron cross "officer. Two German officers in World War II won this honor.

Rommel, Kesselring, Mo Deer and Kallner were marshals, Dietrich and Mantefel were generals and other seven people.

Huber, Bourcq, Shawken, Mao Mu. In fact, on top of this, there are "knights with golden oak leaves, double swords and diamonds"

Iron Cross ",but only one was awarded to Colonel Rudder, an air force dive bomber pilot.

It is said that this man destroyed more than 500 Soviet tanks and self-propelled artillery in World War II, almost equivalent to a Soviet guards.

The strength of the tank group army. Although he had only one leg left, he continued to fight in the air, even in the war.

Survived. This is beside the point.

At the same time, the attempted murder of Hitler on July 20 seems to have little effect on Dietrich, who

There was obviously a direct hotline in Hitler's headquarters, and I learned that Hitler was still alive at the first time.

Look at that. But then the American army made a breakthrough in the "Cobra" operation in the south, but it completely changed the situation on the western front. American army

Patton's new third army, from Avelan to the German defense line, weakened the strength of the German south.

Can no longer maintain a decent line of defense. In this chaos, Dietrich became the fire chief.

In August, Dietrich commanded the entire German Fifth Armored Army (the former western armored cluster), trying to be in Fares.

Stalled the Canadian army's encirclement and suppression offensive, and as a result, Fales kept it for five days longer than Al Jean Tang in the south, causing a large number of people to fall into it

Fares-El let the Germans out of Don's pocket. Later, Dietrich temporarily represented the injured Hauser.

Command the seventh army, on August 3 1, finally handed over the seventh army to general abel Bach, but abel Bach.

The next day, he was unfortunately captured by the British army, and Dietrich had to come back as an agent until the Seventh Army handed him over in September.

General Mantefer of the Army.

When the chaos on the western front came to an end in September, Dietrich was recalled by Hitler and formed the First SS.

Army Panzer Corps, numbered SS 6th Panzer Corps. During this period, Dietrich took advantage of his relationship with Hitler.

Special relationship, trying to become his personal friend, because of his involvement in the murder of Hitler's group Rommel's former

Lieutenant General Paidar, Chief of Staff, intervened. Although unsuccessful, Paidar's treatment in Gestapo prison has improved.

A lot. After the war, Paidar, always known as an important member of the West German army, reciprocated and applied for parole for Dietrich.

I did my best.

The main purpose of forming the 6 th Panzer Corps of SS is to be the main force of Ardennes offensive. To this end,

1 SS Panzer Corps under the regimental commander. The commander of Prius is the Lah division of SS 1 Leibstandarte, and the teacher is Meng.

Ke Moenck, 12 Hitler Youth League branch, teacher Kramer. 2 nd SS Panzer Corps, commander ratio

Tracy, under the SS, the Second Reich Division, Teacher Lammerding, the Ninth Hohenstaufen Division and Teacher Starr.

Dele Stadhle, and the German wehrmacht armored trainer and teacher Baierling. In addition, the army is temporarily seconded.

15 the 67th infantry of the group army. In addition to the regular army, there are SS special forces in Skorzny.

Colonel hyde's army airborne.

Dietrich and his panzer corps performed quite badly in the Ardennes campaign, partly because.

The terrain of Ardennes, where the whole armored army had only five marching roads, was quickly blocked and airdropped to Hyde behind enemy lines.

The colonel's paratroopers brigade could not wait for the scheduled main force to meet in any case and was forced to surrender. The whole group army has only LAH division.

The fighting team of Piper Group made a breakthrough because Piper captured a beautiful woman in the attack.

Fuel from the military supply station can continue to be delivered. But Piper's troops and Laha Division, 1 SS Department of Panzer Corps,

Dietrich could not communicate with the army headquarters, and the progress was completely unknown to his superiors, so it was settled.

There is no breakthrough in the development of the regiment. The star of the Ardennes campaign was changed from the scheduled SS Panzer Corps.

Mantefel's Army's 5th Panzer Corps. Despite the objective conditions, Dietrich and his collection

The ability of the regimental headquarters to organize and arrange the details of the campaign, such as marching routes, communication, oil distribution, etc., should be criticized.

These difficulties should be considered in advance. When Colonel Hyde was worried about poor communication before the war, he asked Dietrich

To use homing pigeons as a backup means of communication, Dietrich actually said, "Who do you think I am? Open the park? " . arouse

Tracy complained that the weather after the war was also a problem. In fact, he should thank the bad weather for helping the Germans avoid it.

The allied aerial bombing in the first few days of the campaign was correct. Task Force Piper had to retreat because it had gone too far.

Come back, but before that, it created the massacre of American prisoners of war. Dietrich, Piper and others will be killed after the war.

Be tried for this matter.

After the defeat of Ardennes, the 6th SS Panzer Corps was transported to Hungary, belonging to the Waller South Group.

The army group launched a counterattack against the Soviet Ukrainian Third Army near Lake Balaton. To this end, Gilles Gilles' party

The 4th SS Panzer Corps was also under Dietrich's command, including the 3rd SS Skull Division and the 5th SS Capital Division.

Shi Jing). However, Dietrich's counterattack collided head-on with the Soviet general attack on Budapest and advanced the Soviet advantage.

Had to retreat after the attack. Hitler flew into a rage and ordered the cancellation of the SS flag division, imperial division and skeleton division.

Landlord, the armband of Master Hohenstaufen. This is a heavy psychological blow to Dietrich, who is struggling at the front.

Dietrich was in a trance all day after learning the news. He said, "After all this,

Thank you. "He immediately ordered that it was forbidden to pass on the order to cancel the armband, but it was still spread through other channels.

This word has been handed down. Legend has it that Dietrich was very angry. He still put all the medals he won in a urinal, and there were

Said Dietrich took off all the medals and returned them to Hitler. Unable to verify urinal, but Dietrich's

Did not return the medal. His knight cross decorated with oak leaves, double swords and diamonds is still on his eldest son.

At home.

After the Hungarian counterattack failed, Dietrich's armored forces fought and retreated to Austria, where they were

Lee surrendered to the American troops on the western front behind him. Dietrich himself surrendered to the 36 th Infantry Division of the 7 th Army of the United States and was immediately

Detention.

As the SS slaughtered American prisoners of war in the Battle of Ardennes, Dietrich and his subordinate units, divisions and regiments were in command.

Officials were tried, Dietrich was sentenced to life imprisonment, and Piper was sentenced to death (but not executed).

Kramer, the chief of staff, was sentenced to 10, and Prius, the commander, was sentenced to 20 years. These people are locked in the clothes of Landsberg Castle.

Punishment, this castle prison was imprisoned by Hitler for 9 months between 1923- 1924 because of the failed coup in the beer hall.

In the prison where I wrote my book Mein Kampf. None of the German war criminals served their sentences and were released on parole.

Dietrich and Piper were the last two war criminals in this prison and were released on parole in 1955. But in 1958,

Dietrich will face the trial of the West German government again, this time because of Hitler's Nazi accusation of cleaning Roma in 1934.

The role of the team in The Night of the Long Knife. This time Dietrich was sentenced to 18 months, but only because of health problems.

Problem, I spent half a year in prison before I came out. 1966 Dietrich died of a heart attack at home. Because the west german government's

Indulgence, his grand funeral gathered a large number of former SS members, which caused a very bad social impact.

How to see Dietrich's military talent? Because of his background, Dietrich was interested in ordinary SS soldiers.

Welfare is very concerned, easy to communicate with soldiers, and even eats in the soldiers' canteen at ordinary times. His nickname in the Los Angeles branch.

It's "dad", which is not common in the hierarchical German army. Dietrich has a good military talent.

Ommon sense, but he lacks the professional training of commanders, and intelligence is not his specialty anyway. elder

German Marshal Lund said Dietrich was "a respectable but stupid guy", and Dietrich himself was in wartime.

1 chief of staff Bitterich said that it often takes a long time to explain a big tactical problem to Dietrich.

Time. But according to German military tradition, the incompetence of the first mate is not necessarily a big problem, as long as there is

A very capable and trustworthy chief of staff will do. Like World War I, Hindenburg is a famous pendulum.

Set, the actual owner is his chief of staff, ludendorff. Dietrich's wartime chief of staff were all very capable predecessors.

Officers of the General Staff of the National Defence Force can make up for it to some extent. In Normandy, Dietrich's boss, the western front,

Schweipenburg, commander of the armored cluster, observed that Dietrich was very dependent on his chief of staff, Kramer, militarily.

Facts have proved that Dietrich is still a very competent principal and teacher. But Dietrich is really not suitable.

Commanders above the corps level, especially the headquarters above the corps level, are larger, and there are not so many professionals in the SS.

The real headquarters to assist Dietrich, his own ability is quite insufficient. Dietrich can be promoted to the set.

The high position of the colonel is mainly due to his special relationship with Hitler.
