Oskar Dirlewanger's unit never even reached brigade strength, let alone it's official divisional strength. Nevertheless, it was charged with hunting for partisans in the forests near Minsk, a hideous job, and later took part in the 1944 destruction of Warsaw.

[edit] Dirlewanger's death

It states in the article: Oskar Dirlewanger (September 26, 1895-June 7, 1945) was a World War II officer with the Schutzstaffel (SS). He commanded the SS-Sturmbrigade Dirlewanger unit. Dirlewanger was sentenced for war crimes and was beaten to death by inmates at Altshausen, a French prison camp.

But according to author French McClean, he was beaten to death by Polish guards at Altshausen, probibly as revenge for his actions in Warsaw. Though it might be worth mentioning. Piercetp 02:33, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

If the Polish guards were former inmates during the war period, the article you quote would prove right and your "correction" would be judged useless and a tentative way to blame Polish of an coward reprise against a unarmed prisioner, even if he was Dirlewanger. 201.19.202.29 18:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
