[Mikedc]

SS-Hauptsturmführer Holstein.
In 1936 member of Leibstandarte SS 'Adolf Hitler'(mot.).
Died on 11-12-1936
Who knows more about this officer???

SS-Hauptsturmführer Paul Wicislo.
Did find his name on the site from the Bundesarchiv.de but couldn't find anything else on him.
Who has something on this officer???

SS-Haupsturmführer Friedrich Gissibl.
From 1940 till 1943 he was head of the Reichspropagandaamt-Zweigstelle in Litzmannstadt.
SS-Sturmbannführer.
This was all I could find about him, so hopefully somebody else has something more.

Hello Fred,

Thank you very much for this valuable information. Like I said before, I'm already happy with the basic info that's available about the officers that I'm asking questions about.
Now that I've the DoB from Paul Wicislo I'm also certain that he's the same person as the one mentioned on the VDK-site:
Nachname: Wicislo
Vorname: Paul
Dienstgrad: Feldwebel
Geburtsdatum: 23.02.1910
Geburtsort: Thorn
Todes-/Vermisstendatum: 19.08.1941
Todes-/Vermisstenort: Höhen östl. Krimitschki
Paul Wicislo ruht auf der Kriegsgräberstätte in Charkow - Sammelfriedhof (Ukraine) .
Endgrablage: Block 8 Reihe 62 Grab 6123.
As we can see he most likely was killed while he was serving as a Feldwebel with the Wehrmacht. And now we also know when and where he was killed, so hopefully someone finds this info also interesting....


Thanks,
Mike

Can anyone supply me with the name of the man who took over the 9./LAH following the death of Holstein - the next in line from the Kompanie were SS-Obersturmführer Günter Mauersberg and Christian Hansen (although I'm sure it wasn't him) of course someone from another Kompanie could have been drafted in.

[Georges JEROME]

the following chefs of the 9./LAH were: SS-Ustuf. R.Schneider, Mauersberg then Christian Hansen
