What was the level of the SS during WWII?

The SS can be said to be the private arm of the Nazi Party, mainly to prevent the Wehrmacht from betraying Hitler. The German Army has always been the pride of Germany, and they are loyal only to those who are of great help to the German national interests, which also explains why, before the fall of France, Hitler had always been wary of the Wehrmacht, and the Wehrmacht did not like Hitler very much, and the Wehrmacht brought Hitler to power mainly to let him break the restrictions of the Versailles Treaty in preparation for the rebuilding of the army. If you want to say who is more powerful, of course, it is the SS.

Because the equipment of the SS is generally better than that of the Wehrmacht, the new ** is the first to be tested by the SS, and the training of the SS is harder than that of the Wehrmacht, and the conditions for conscription are more than those of the Wehrmacht, and the quality of the soldiers is very high. Now let's talk about their differences:

Uniform. The SS uniform was black, the hat had a skull emblem on it, and the steel helmet and neckline were two lightning bolts (SS symbol), and there were some differences between different units, such as the Viking flag, like leaves, etc. The Wehrmacht uniform is gray-blue, the steel helmet is the Imperial Eagle, and the hat is sandwiched between two olive branches (I don't know if it's an olive branch, but it's like it anyway) sandwiched between them.

Equip. As mentioned earlier, the SS would be given priority to the new equipment, and the SS would be better equipped than the Wehrmacht (a little more submachine guns, tanks, etc. would be allocated).

Tactics of war. The Wehrmacht was a veteran of the Prussian aristocracy and a professional soldier from a military academy, so the Wehrmacht was tactical, had a strong officer corps, and would not kill prisoners. The SS was mostly born as Nazi fanatics, so the SS charged with fanatical Nazi ideology, was deeply poisoned by Nazi ideology, and never took prisoners, and killed those who surrendered.

Therefore, although the SS achieved greater results than the Wehrmacht, its own ** was about the same as the enemy's**. It can be described by an idiom: kill a thousand enemies, and lose eight hundred.

Duty. The Wehrmacht was only responsible for fighting the war, while the SS was initially responsible for local policing and the arrest of Jews. In addition, the SS established the Gestapo (state secret police organization), which made the SS assume the role of maintaining law and order in both the early and later periods.

Later SS troops were sent to the battlefield in large numbers).

Faith. The Wehrmacht believed in the supremacy of national interests and the traditional Prussian military honor, and did whatever it could represent the interests of the German nation within the scope of military honor. The SS was constantly permeated with the dogmas of Nazi expansionism and racial discrimination.

Internationally. The SS was not recognized as a legitimate organization by the countries involved in the war at the time, so captured SS officers and men were often at risk of being shot at any time, as they were not protected by the Geneva Conventions. In battle, the SS was more tenacious and ruthless than the Wehrmacht, and the SS, with its higher military quality, better equipment, and more fanatical ideas, was more difficult for the enemy to deal with than the Wehrmacht.

That's pretty much it, welcome to add.

Downstairs, there were more SS than Wehrmacht? As long as the Wehrmacht mutinied, the SS could not save Hitler.

The SS had only a few hundred thousand, while the Wehrmacht had several million.

It also depends on the actual situation.

Bai a division vs the PLA is the same as the Du system?

Or the same number of people.

Or all SS dao

version vs PLA.

If it is SS a division vs PLA one.

The right teacher. It must be the SS victory, I'm talking about the elite divisions of the SS, such as SS1, SS2, SS5, etc. First of all, firepower, but also armored divisions ... The combat effectiveness can be imagined...

If the number of people is the same, such as 100 people vs 100 people, and the equipment is basically the same, I think the German army still has the advantage, they are more well-trained, and the firepower at the company level is also much higher than the pla. And fanatical Chengdu is also that.

All SS vs PLA. It is estimated that it is a PLA victory, because SS has a total of 900,000 people, which is SS1 and 2, which is considered to have combat effectiveness, and the rest may be better than the Japanese army, and the estimated combat effectiveness is also about the same. And PLA, there are millions of people, so ah.

If it's an all-for-one fight. It is estimated that SS will be drowned by the sea of people in PLA...

National defense should be Germany's self-defense forces. The SS was Hitler's personal retinue.

The Wehrmacht served the country and the people, and the SS was an army that Hitler did not believe in the Wehrmacht and built to be loyal only to himself.

The SS was divided into Waffen-SS and rank-and-file parties.

There are two types of Du Guards, of which the Armed SS is divided into three categories, and the DAO are the first-level combat divisions, Quan.

Including the Pro-Guard Division, the Skeleton Division, the Imperial Division, etc.; second-level combat divisions, including Viking divisions, etc.; The armed division, which is equivalent to the security division, is extremely rubbish in combat effectiveness. The total number of SS troops did not exceed 1 million at most, of which about 500,000 were Waffen-SS, and 45 divisions were planned to be recruited, but only 38 divisions were actually recruited, and the later divisions were basically understaffed. In contrast, the Wehrmacht remained above 4 million for a long time after the outbreak of World War II.

The Wehrmacht won by being well trained, and the SS was winning by not being afraid of death. If we say that in terms of a first-class combat division, the Waffen-SS is superior. Zhukov once commented on the Waffen-SS:

They were a real group of soldiers, and in comparison, the troops led by Patton and I were all child soldiers. And Western scholars believe that the Waffen-SS twice prevented a similar battle of Stalingrad. Personally, I prefer the Waffen-SS (not counting the scumbags of the armed divisions), but the Wehrmacht's Stagel-German divisions are also strong.

At its peak the Waffen-SS was 600,000 men, while the entire SS organization numbered 1.25 million. Only half of these 600,000 people are Germans.

back, a quarter of them are Germans.

Foreigners, a quarter of them are foreigners. The Waffen-SS was sometimes attached to the Wehrmacht.

At its peak, Germany's military strength was 10.2 million.

In terms of strength, it is the Wehrmacht, and whoever is more elite is, of course, the Waffen-SS.

Of course, there are essential differences. In a normal country, the army is the army of the people, so it is only the legitimate election of the people, and it absolutely does not participate in politics, no matter how the regime changes. This is the Wehrmacht, and they owe allegiance to Hitler because Hitler was the Führer of Germany.

The SS was the private armed forces of the Nazi Party, which occupied a lot of advantageous resources after the Nazis occupied state power, and the limelight overshadowed the Wehrmacht, which made the Wehrmacht generals who were born in orthodox soldiers extremely unhappy.

In fact, in the end, they were all loyal to Hitler, the Wehrmacht was a regular army, and the German professional soldiers (Wehrmacht) never believed in a single person. The belief of the traditional German officer corps is only to serve the motherland and the people, and whoever is the emperor and who is the ** has nothing to do with themselves. In the early days of its existence, the SS was only Hitler's guard and a tool against political opponents, subordinate to the SA, and was very small.

is a professional hooligan) Subsequently, led by Himmler, the SS developed a lot. By the beginning of 1933, the membership had grown to more than 50,000. In July 1934, the SS replaced the SA as the leading role in the Nazi terrorist organization, with Hitler under direct control.

After the SS was exhibited, they selected outstanding soldiers, generals, etc. from the Wehrmacht.

The SS was divided into the General SS and the SS.

The SS was better equipped than the Wehrmacht, the SS had a stronger patriotic fervor and a sense of national identity than the Wehrmacht, and the SS had stricter selection and training than the Wehrmacht; However, the Wehrmacht accumulated more practical experience in the early stages of the war, and its number was much larger than that of the SS, so the SS only showed its edge in 1942, playing the role of a special elite unit in Germany, and was the "firefighter" in the German army. The national commander-in-chief of the SS almost never interfered in the actual combat of the SS, and the control of the SS in actual combat was mainly in the hands of Hitler himself and the division commanders.

In a dualist system of armies, a country has two legitimate armed forces.

The SS was divided into ordinary SS and Waffen-SS.

Ordinary SS coverage is more, doctors, **** or something.

Of course, the Wehrmacht was powerful, and the SS mainly suppressed internal terror and exterminated the Jews, but in the end it also went to the front and ran out.

No way, Hitler was just an army corporal.
