USSR: Foreign Waffen-SS Units Fighting for Nazi German During WWII! (15.11.2025)

After-all, WWII was a war of diametrically opposed ideologies. Even Jews (and Muslims) – amongst many other religious and ethnic groups – served in the Wehrmacht and SS formations. What follows is a full list of Waffen-SS Units that were formally established and recruited members into the Nazi German Army (some individuals, such as the Catholic Irish – did join the Nazi Germans [at the behest of the Vatican] – primarily in unofficial SS formations – or were distributed into other groupings due to time constraints and conditions on the ground). This is a list of SS Units that non-Germans could join (out of the hundreds of thousands of British POWs held during WWII – only “54” dared to join these enemy Units. They were tried and sentenced to death after the war). Furthermore, ethnic Germans born and/or living outside Nazi Germany were permitted to form their own SS Units.
