It's not much what I have but it's a start anyway.

Born: 27-10-1891.
Member of the NSDAP(Nr. 1.361.788).
Member of the SS(Nr. 357.135).
From 28-2-1941 till 15-5-1941 he was commander of the 6. SS-Gebirgs-Division ‘Nord’ and from 1-1-1942 till 28-1-1943 he was commander of SS-Infanterie-Regiment 10.
Got promoted to SS-Brigadeführer und Generalmajor der Waffen-SS und der Polizei on 21-6-1943.
From 31-7-1943 till October 1943 he was commander of the 1. SS-Infanterie-Brigade(mot.).
In 1944 he was also working with the HSSPF ‘Adriatisches Küstenland’.
He received the DKiG(German Cross in Gold).

If you really wanna know more about him it's indeed better to check the book from AnDie, he's having real long and very detailed bios about alot of high-ranking SS-officers.
