Conflicting Death Dates of SS Generals
With all the new material that's been posted on this section of the forum, I'm trying to update my files. Here are the first 11 examples of some senior SS officers on whom I have conflicting or inconsistent death dates (Albert Forster has already been discussed on another thread). Does anyone have more information (with sources) on when and how they died:

Hello mr Miller,
you wrote: "Rediess, Wilhelm (1900-5.1945) [SS-Obergruppenführer und General der Waffen-SS und Polizei] -- suicide by explosive charge 8-9 May 1945 at Castle Skaugum, Oslo"
That is not correct. Rediess shot himself during the night to the 8.5.45. Terboven had the bedroom locked. Later, actually next night, he ordered the body to be brought down to the small bunker, where the explosive charge was placed.
