Schuma-Bataillon 20
Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Hi Phil!
20. Schutzmannschafts Bataillon:
Formed on 4 September 1941. Named 2. Riga Schutzmannschafts Bataillon on 23 September 1941 and renamed 20. (Riga) Schutzmannschafts Bataillon on 5 January 1942. Transferred to the Lettische Freiwilligen Polizei Regiment 1 Riga as IV Bataillon on 19 November 1944.
Commander:
4 Sep 1941 - 4 Dec 1941: Hauptmann Kārlis Porietis
4 Dec 1941 - 13 Jan 1942: Hauptmann K. Bēms
13 Jan 1942 - 11 Mar 1942: Hauptmann Kārlis Porietis
11 Mar 1942 - Oct 1942: Hauptmann Oskars Tiltiņš
Oct 1942- Sep 1944: Oberstleutnant Pēteris Užāns
Sep 1944 - 19 Nov 1944: Hauptmann O. Šeturiņš
The battalion remained as a reserve unit throughout it's existance, initially based in Riga guarding the bridges over the River Daugava, the port and various warehouses. On 10 October 1944, the battalion was evacuated to Liepaja and on 25 October 1944 was transported to Danzig together with the Insp. Gen. of the Legion, Gruf. Bangerskis and his staff. On 30 October 1944, the battalion was moved to Pappau, then after a few days to Breitenthal, and further on to Kirchweg-Gurske. Here the battalion was transferred to the Lettische Freiwilligen Polizei Regiment 1 Riga and ended it's existance.
I will post a pic and bio of Užāns tomorrow.

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Many thanks VJK.
I knew it was evacued with members of generalinspektion and Gal. Bangerskis but I was thinking it was dissolve for serving reinforcement to 15 Waf.Gren.Div. der SS after its arrival. The site (lacplesis.com) is different if we choose its english or latvian version. In the english one it speak about reinforcement of the division in november and into the latvian one about the latvian police regiment but I was thinking I could make an error in translation. Into the english version it was the 276. Kuldigas kd. battalion wich became the IV/Pol Rgt).
If the battalion come as IV° of the police regiment, didn't this regiment dissolve a few days (or weeks) later into the Lett. Feldersatz Depot ?
Do you know if Hauptmann O. Šeturiņš, the last 20 battalion commander became IV° battalion commander into police regiment (I have Janis BIRZULIS, former 276 battalion commander, as commander of the IV) and later member of the Lett. Feldersatz Depot ?
Best regards

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Hi Phil!
I’ve done some further research into the question re the fate of the 20. Schuma Btl.
O.Freivalds (ed) "Latviešu karavirs otra pasaules kaŗa laikā Vol 2" states that the 276. Kuldigas Schuma Btl. was incorporated into “Lettische Freiwilligen Polizei Regiment 1 Riga” as the IV Btl. on 11 August 1943, J. Birzulis commanding. This Battalion was all but wiped out in the battles around Vilnius in July 1944, only 6 officers (incl. Birzulis) and 42 men survived the breakout from the encirclement. The Regiment was re-organised in August 1944 with 3 battalions. Transferred to Germany at the beginning of October 1944, on 15 October the Regiment was formally incorporated into the 15. Waffen-Grenadier-Division der SS (lettische Nr. 1). On 26 October 1944, the Regiment was renamed Waffen Gren. Rgt. der SS „Riga”. The 20. Schuma Btl. was then incorporated into the Regiment as the IV Btl. on 19 November 1944.
Unfortunately, I have record of whether Šeturiņš remained as Btl. commander.

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Hi!
This is all I have on the other Btl. commanders:
Oskars Tiltiņš
born: 24 April 1897 in Dreilinu parish
died:
Major d. Schupo
11 Mar 1942 - Oct 1942: Kdr. 20 Schuma Btl.
4 Jan 1943 - 25 Jan 1943: Kdr. 279 Schuma Btl.

10 May 1944 - 8 May 1945: Kdr. 319-F Schuma Btl.
EKII: 8 Aug 1944
Please note that I have corrected an earlier typo on my part - Užāns took over command of the 20. Schuma Btl from Tiltiņš in October 1942, not 1943.

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Great info VJK because it's the first time I heard speaking about Waf. Gren. Rgt. der SS "Riga". Did this regiment exists for a long time (to the end of war) or did it was dissolve and its personnels "distributed" into all the divisional units ?
I suppose its commander was Ostubaf MEIJA as last commander of the Lett.Freiw.Pol.Rgt.1 "Riga". Am I right ?

Phil D.

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Hi Phil!
Many thanks for the additional info on Tiltiņš - I completely forgot to check in my LKO holders book. As a result, I have compiled a more detailed bio of him. I’ve also compiled a bio of K. Porietis.
Regarding Waf. Gren. Rgt. der SS "Riga", it is quite difficult to get a clear picture. From what I have been able to find out, Meija remained in command and at the end of November 1944, the Regiment was renamed “1. Waffen-SS Grenadier Regiment” (together with the 2. and 3. W-SS Gren. Reg. they made up the Waffen-SS Lettisches Feldersatz Depot under Oberführer Martin). According to a report submitted by Meija to Gruf. Bangerskis, in mid-January 1945 the 1. and 2. Regiment were combined to make up the “Waffen-SS Grenadier E-Regiment 1.”, which Meija commanded until 18 Feb 1945 when he handed command over to the Regiment’s German Liaison Officer, Stubaf. Zill. The remnants of the Regiment retreated to Schwerin and surrendered to Anglo-American forces on 2 May 1945.

Re: Schuma Bataillon 20
Thanks Valdis for the additional info on Regiment Riga. If I'm right, Stubag ZILL is Egon ZILL correct ? After he serve at the creation of the 31 SS Div as battalion commander I was ignorant where he was at the beginning of 1945.
If you agree we can continue the study of latvian Schuma battalions into the Latvian Legion sticky.
