Hi !

SS-Gruppenführer Arthur Mülverstadt was the commander of the Polizeidivision in 1941. That's all I know about him. He was killed on 8 August 1941 somwhere in Russia.

Can someone tell me more about him ?

Any picture is the welcome !

So long !

Sorry I am so annoyed I spent 30 minutes entering his bio and it would not allow me to submit. It stated the site could not be found.

Here is what I presently have on Muelverstedt; sources include Mark C. Yerger's "Waffen-SS Commanders, Krüger to Zimmermann" and Muelverstedt's SS personnel file on microfilm at the U.S. National Archives, College Park, Maryland.

Best wishes,
