Theodor Eicke

[Waffen211]

Dear friends, I found this photo on the web. He should portray Theodor Eicke, when he was in command of 10. SS-Standarte. Does anyone know the origin of the picture? Thanks in advance.

Bundesarchiv Berlin -Lichterfelde, SSO file Theodor Eicke, plus several private archives. It's a very well known photograph.

Nice. Perhaps it was taken during the period of his Italian exile.

I hate to bump such an old thread, but I have a question I need to ask about this individual.

What if anything is known for certain about his parents and any siblings he may have had?

Check out his German biographer he has plenty of info on his siblings and parents: Niels Weise: Eicke. Eine SS-Karriere zwischen Nervenklinik, KZ-System und Waffen-SS. München 2013

I'll have to look into that, and brush up on my German. The large numbers of siblings make things a little confused but I'm looking into something curious.
