Foreign Officers (?)

#1

Has somebody information on following officers:
SS-Standartenoberjunker Josef Gerards (geb. 20.3.1922)
Untersturmführer Theo Daelmans (geb. 1.2.1912), Freiw.-Legion Flandern
Untersturmführer Pierre Evrard, Freiw.-Legion Flandern

a) I would like to know the nationality of these officers.
b) I would like to know about the military careers of these officers, If they made any military careers, because I suspect the last two officers where ‘Entlassen’ from their duties as foreign Legion-officers.

Regarding Pierre Evrard (born 11-2-1920)

According Personalbefehl 33 (27-2-1942) Leg.-Untersturmführer Evrard was released from the W-SS as per 28-2-1942 and had to go to the SS-Ergänzungsstelle Nordwest in Den Haag.
