Schutzmannshaft Bn 267

[Lette-wulf]

I noticed that on the board ( somewhere ) that there was a suggestion that Lettisches Polizei Bn 267 surrendered in the Kurland in 1945. Michaelis, however, says it was disbanded 1 June 1943 after its one year run. A number of members went on to begin the formulation of 15th Lat WSS. Can some one be more definitive on what happened to Orpo 267 and when? I see that it may have been assigned to Rezekne in May of 1942, from the ending of Brigade 17- Ost which arrived in Rezekne in March of 1942.
