Hello,

he was Kp-Chef over 12./SS-Totenkopf-Rgt. 3 in 1940
and when he was killed 1941 he was Btl.-Kdr. of
II./SS-T.Inf.Rgt. 3.

But I wonder if somene can give me info what he did before
he became Kp Chef or the 12. Kp. in SS-TIR 3?

Best regards,

Georg

I think he served as a personal adjutant to Karl Maria Weisthor-Wiligut in Berlin-Grunewald for some time. Untersturmführer von Lachner was replaced by someone named Ruppmann, an untersturmführer as well. I think he is the same man .

The one and only thread where Ruppmann is mentioned!

Does anyone know when he was the CO of II./SS-Totenkopf-Infanterie-Regiment 3? I have a "suitable" hole between SS-Stubaf. Heinrich Petersen and SS-Hstuf. Karl Thier (Feb 1941 - Jul 1941). I know that Dieter Lönholdt covers part of that time but which part and maybe Ruppmann covers the rest?

Thanks in advance,
