Re: Let's Build the Latvian Legion
Hi,
In volume 10 of Latviešu kaŗavīrs otra pasaules kaŗa laikā there is a Captain by the name of Ludvigs Krukovskis/Kurkovskis (not sure on spelling as both entries appear) attributed as being a member of the 42nd Regt:
DOB- 3/6/1889
DOD- 18/12/1943
On lacplesis.com I have found a Tevija featured obituary dated 4th March 1944 to a Ludvigs Krukovskis, which is most likely the same man.
I can't find anymore data on this officer nor does he appear in the above list. Is this a mistake on the part of the authors or was there a captain by this rank in perhaps a different unit? Can anyone help?
By the way I would like to say great work to everyone, this is a great source of information,thanks.
All the best,
Chris

Re: Let's Build the Latvian Legion
Hi,
Thanks Phil for clearing that up, there are a number of mistakes in volume 10 of that series. I never checked the Fuhrerliste, I assume it's on the foreign volunteer disk? I'll dig a bit deeper into this.

Some comments regarding Phil's post:
a) Waffen Hauptsturmführer der SS Jānis MUMBERE is the same person as Waffen Hauptsturmführer der SS Jānis BUMBĒRS.
b) Waffen Hauptsturmführer der SS Janis GRUNTE commanded the I Btl. of Waffen-Grenadier Regiment der SS 44 (lett.Nr.6), I have no record of him having commanded the I Btl. of Waffen-Grenadier Regiment der SS 43 (lett.Nr.2).
c) Waffen Hauptsturmführer der SS Elmar KIRTSI is an Estonian and I have no record of him having served in the 19. Division.

Arturs BERGS
Thank you Valdis for correcting my errors.
I'm surprised by Stubaf Arturs BERGS at the head of the I/43. I have him "only" Hstuf and killed in action on 04/1944 as commander of the I/42 (your post about the regiment 42 and JP Moore's Führerlist).
For Ostuf K. RUBENIS commanding the 11/III/43, I have a Ostuf Karlis RUBENIS (born 03/01/1906) and serving at the 19 SS division. I suppose the same man. Do you agree with me ?
Do you have a pic for Hstuf Janis BUMBERS, Janis PURMALIS and Paulis KRASTS.
Best regards
Phil D.

Hi Phil!
I apologise for my error on Bergs - I don't know how it slipped past me. You are correct on your statement re Bergs.
As compensation, here are pics of Krasts and Purmalis - no pic of Bumbers, I'm afraid. I agree on Rubenis.
Best regards,
VJK
