SS-Hstuf. Siegfried Assmus, SD Lublin

I'm looking for any details about commander of "31. Schutzmannschafts-Bataillon der SD" SS-Hstuf. Siegfried Assmuss. In Polish source i found that he was probably SD officer and died while fighting with Soviet partisans in the village Chłaniów in the Lublin District.The battle is described with details in Polish sources and mentioned in Polish wikipedia.

I can't find no obituary of man called Assmuss in any BBL, but in BBL from 20.06.42 there is "SS-Hstuf. Assmus" with SD, transferred to KdS Radom. I believe that this is the same man.

Great, thanks!

Indeed this man appear in the 1938 DAL with promotion to SS-Ustuf. 09.11.36 and to SS-Ostuf. 11.09.38 with SD-Hauptamt. His successor as commander of "31. Schutzmannschafts-Bataillon der SD" became SS-Stubaf. Dr. Ewald Biegelmeyer, SD-Referent beim KdS Lublin. In this unit also served SS-Ustuf. Otto Hoch (*26.11.12) and SS-Ustuf. Walter Väth (*19.08.09 Wien), both from Lublin SD.
