The '''Germanic SS''' ({{lang-de|Germanische SS}}; {{lang-no|Germanske SS}}; {{lang-nl|Germaansche SS}}) was the term used for the political and military organisations of [[Germanic]] origin in [[Europe]] from 1940 until 1945 during [[WWII]] under the patronage of the [[Schutzstaffel]] ({{SS}}) and the administration of the ''Leitstelle der Germanischen SS''.

==History==
[[File:Northmen of the SS.jpg|thumb|300px|[[Northmen]] of the SS defending Europe from the threat of [[Bolshevism]] (Norwegian recruitment poster with the caption "Norwegians – fight for Norway)]]
[[File:T Thronsen (Stabschefdes Hird), A Quist (Legion), Jonas Lie (Polizeipräsident), Langlie (Quislings Adjutant), Karl Leib (Germanische Leitstelle) und Quisling.jpg|thumb|300px|Left to right: Thorvald Thronsen (Hird Chief of Staff), Arthur Quist ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Freiwilligen-Legion_%E2%80%9ENorwegen%E2%80%9C Den Norske Legion]), [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Lie,_Jonas Jonas Lie] (Police president), Carl Haakon Langlie (Quisling's adjutant), [[Karl Leib]] (Germanische Leitstelle) and [[Vidkun Quisling]] ([[Nasjonal Samling]]).]]
[[File:Henk Feldmeijer.jpg|thumb|300px|Henk Feldmeijer ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Feldmeijer,_Johannes_Hendrik de])]]
The purpose of the Germanic SS was to spread [[Nordic thinking]] ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Nordischer_Gedanke ''Nordgesinnung'']) and the ideology of [[racial awareness]] with the goal of uniting all Germanic peoples of the continent, who, as [[Heinrich Himmler]] put it, were "blutsmässig unerhört wertvolle Kräfte" ("by blood exceptionally highly qualified people") – the invincible foundation of a new [[Pan-Germanism]]. Members of the organisations often served as local security police augmenting units of the [[Gestapo]], [[Sicherheitsdienst]] and other main departments of the ''[[Reichssicherheitshauptamt]]'' or RSHA. Later, many of the members fought on the [[Eastern Front (World War II)|Eastern Front]] as part of the [[Waffen-SS Foreign Legions]].

===Germanische Leitstelle===
The Germanische Leitstelle was a department of the [[SS-Hauptamt]] under the command of SS-Obergruppenführer [[Gottlob Berger]]. It oversaw the recruitment and propaganda offices for the Waffen SS in [[Oslo]], [[Copenhagen]], [[Brussels]] and [[The Hague]]. The Oslo office was established in 1941 and led by Karl Leib, the son-in-law of Gottlob Berger. It was headquartered in Drammensveien 99 until 1943, when it moved to Colbjørnsens gate 1.

The Germanische Leitstelle published the "Germanic Messenger" (''Germansk Budstikke'') and "SS-Heftet", which was the Norwegian edition of ''SS-Leitheft'' ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/SS-Leitheft de]). It was also tasked with coordinating the scientific work of the SS, and hosted the [[Ahnenerbe]] ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Forschungsgemeinschaft_Deutsches_Ahnenerbe_e._V. de]) mission in [[Norway]], led by Hans Schwalm.

==Germanic SS detachments (chronologically)==

* '''''Germanische SS Schweiz''''' under SS-Obersturmbannführer Dr. Franz Riedweg ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Riedweg,_Franz de]), who joined the SS on 13 June 1938; he married Sibylle von Blomberg, daughter of [[GFM]] [[Werner von Blomberg]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20210829054726/https://www.luzernerzeitung.ch/leben/geschichte-der-luzerner-franz-riedweg-war-der-hoechste-schweizer-in-der-waffen-ss-sein-job-auslaender-rekrutieren-ld.2155622 ''Der Luzerner Franz Riedweg war der höchste Schweizer in der Waffen-SS – sein Job: Ausländer rekrutieren''], Luzerner Zeitung, 2021</ref>
** an ''underground'' organisation because of [[Switzerland]]'s neutral status. The many thousands of Swiss, who fought for Germany, mainly [[Foreign volunteers in the German Army (WWII)|entlisted in the Wehrmacht]] instead of the Waffen-SS. About 2,000 Swiss joined the Waffen-SS<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20220331184919/https://www.srf.ch/kultur/gesellschaft-religion/wochenende-gesellschaft/schweizer-nazis-bei-diesem-krieg-wollte-ich-dabei-sein ''Rund 2000 Schweizer kämpften freiwillig in der Waffen-SS'']</ref> (1,100 Swiss from abroad und 870 Swiss volunteers<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20210304184533/https://www.solothurnerzeitung.ch/solothurn/kanton-solothurn/aus-abenteuerlust-und-verblendung-solothurner-in-der-waffen-ss-ld.1709822 ''1100 Auslandschweizer und 870 Freiwillige'']</ref>).
*'''''Nederlandsche SS''''', renamed the '''''Germaansche SS in Nederland''''' ([[Netherlands]])
** formed by the National Socialist Movement in the Netherlands (''Nationaal-Socialistische Beweging in Nederland'', [https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Nationaal-Socialistische_Beweging NSB]) in September 1940 and led by Henk Feldmeijer ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Feldmeijer,_Johannes_Hendrik de]), an early NSB member; integrated into the Germanic SS as the ''Germaansche SS in Nederland'' in November 1942.
*'''''Algemeene SS Vlaanderen''''', renamed the '''''Germaansche SS in Vlaanderen''''' ([[Flanders]], [[Belgium]])
** originally founded in November 1940, becoming part of the Germanische SS in 1942; as the Allies invaded Belgium in September 1944, many of the members fled to [[Germany]].
*'''''Norges SS''''', renamed the '''''Germanske SS Norge''''' ([[Norway]])
** formed in May 1941 and led by Jonas Lie ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Lie,_Jonas de]); it published a newspaper entitled ''Germaneren''. A large part of the members were recruited from the police, and about 50 percent served in the Waffen SS on the Eastern Front.
*'''''Germansk Korpset''''' (Germanic Corps), renamed the '''''SS-Schalburgkorps''''' ([[Denmark]])
** established on 2. Februar 1943 and renamed the ''SS-Schalburgkorps'' shortly afterwards in honour of the fallen leader Christian Frederik von Schalburg ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Schalburg,_Christian_Frederik_von de]); mainly used for the auxiliary police corps (''HIPO-Korpset'') and in the ''gang fighting'' (''Bandenbekämpfung''), the anti-partisan operations.

The Walloons, being of Gallo-Roman descent, were not part of the Germanic SS. Neither was the French ''Légion des Volontaires Français'' ([https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9gion_des_volontaires_fran%C3%A7ais_contre_le_bolch%C3%A9visme de]). The Anglo-Saxon of the [[British Free Corps]], being from a belligerent country, were also not listed as Germanic SS. The up to 1,500 Swedes of the Waffen-SS were not officially allowed through their government to serve, therefore no Germanic SS could be established in neutral Sweden. Some sources also count the Estonian volunteers to the Germanic SS, but this is historically controversial.

==Germanic SS ranks==
The Germanic SS maintained an insignia system based on the ranks and insignia of the Schutzstaffel. The various names of the ranks were slightly modified depending upon the particular country in which they were used. The Flemings used the same ranks as the Netherlands, with the highest rank being ''SS-Standaardleider''.

The following is a comparison of regular SS and Germanic-SS rank titles.
