Hi Georg, he was with 1/Regiment "Westland" and SS Ersatz Battalion "Westland" 1940-42 prior to reassignment to SS-WVHA.

Hey guys,

As far as I can figure out you're talking about Walter Plöw. And if I can follow it all correctly he served with SS-Division 'Wiking' from 1940 till 1942. After that he was assigned to the SS-WVHA and after that he served as CO from the SS-Flak-Abteilung with 11. SS-Freiwilligen-Panzergrenadier-Division 'Nordland'. Let me know if I'm right with this.

And something else. TH just told us he, probably Plöw, served with 1. Kp from SS-Regiment 'Westland' and with SS-Ersatz-Battalion 'Westland'. Do you mean the SS-Ersatz-Battalion with SS-Regiment 'Westland' or just SS-Ersatz-Battalion 'Westland'???


Thanks,
Mike

Hello Juha,


Thanks for letting me know about your interest in the 'Wiking' and I believe you when you say you got so far already.
But I'm not really interested in 'Wiking', at least not in this manner. What I do is collecting info about all SS-officers I can find and that alone is already a hell of a job. And because I run a small business and I live on my own I also have other priorities in life. And because I didn't do anything with this history-hobby for around 20 years I never can catch up.

But sometimes it's interesting to dive into a division and because I was dealing with that casualty list I went into the 'Wiking' a bit deeper then I normally do with these kind off topics. I rather stick with my orginal plan to collect info about SS-officers but I find the 'Wiking' an interesting division.

If I check my files I'll probably find alot of Finnish officers who served in the 'Wiking' but I already can tell you that what you did is as far as complete as I've ever seen it. I can see you're really into this division and checking everything out there is to find out about it and that deserves some appreciation.

So I thank you very much for posting all these names and I'm sure it's a valuable piece of info for my own files. I already know I can start making some new files because alot of the names mentioned in your list do sound very unfamiliar to me.


Take care,
Mike

Hello George,

Thanks for the great contribution you're making here, this is really nice info. Although alot of names are in my files already there are also alot new ones and I know what to do when I've some spare time to work on this subject. I'm lucky that for the moment I still find time to check this forum and work on this hobby a bit but after February I won't be around that much anylonger. Beginning of March the touringseason will start and the first festivals will start.

And because I do PR, promotion, some marketing and I work with bands I already see alot of work will come my way. But that's my living and my life, so that's okay.

But as long as I can enjoy the company from all the forumguys/girls this is fine with me.

Hello Juha,

Oh well, that's nothing. If I appreciate somebody or what he's doing I just tell it. So I've to thank you again for the additional info on the III. Battalion with 'Nordland'. I've already seen some familiar names but also some names that are saying nothing to me so I think they're not in my files.
And that's great, that way I can expand my officers files again. Of course it means extra work but as long I'm able to do this I'll do it.


Take care both George and Juha.
Greetings,
Mike

Hello Jan-Hendrik,

I don't have any info on Senghas, only the things that are already known about him.
