A person from SS Standarte Kurt Eggers

Post by veiss »

One of my good friends is looking for traces of his grandfather.
He was from Ukraine and allegedly joined the SS Standarte Kurt Eggers as a volunteer. One of war-time magazines which circulated in Ukraine has his photo on the cover with the inscription "He fights with a pen".
According to non-confirmed information he was killed 1n 1945 during the fall of Berlin.
In this regard is there any possibility to check if this man was in fact within this Standarte and if he was, how to find out about his fate? Does WAST have any info on Eastern volunteeers in this regiment?

I suggest that you contact German archives as they most liely will have information about him.

Try both Bundesarchiv and WASt.
