Hi Phil,

Here's what I have on Leo von Braunschweig taken from his personal file.

As you can see, there is a few discrepancies.


• Ia - BdO Stettin up until 31 April 1940.
• Kdr. d Pol. Ausb. Btls. Hellerau 1 April 1940 —— 4 July 1940.
• Kdr. d. Btls. 32 (Protektorat, GG and Rußland) 5 July 1940 —— 14 June 1942.
• Kdr. d. Pol. Lehr-Btls. Iglau 15 June 1942 —— 20 December 1942.
• Kdr. d. Rgt. “Von Braunschweig” ( later SS-Pol. Rgt.15 Norwegen, Italien) 21 December 1942 —— 29 January 1944.
