Their presence was mostly restricted to Europe, meaning that they couldn’t really have a lot of outside forces, even tho such do in fact exist (like the free India legion)

      @@TEUTONIC__ORDER699 What are you talking about, young man? Ukrainians joined the Galicia Division SPECIFICALLY TO FIGHT THE RUZZKIES. Before the Second World War, the OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists) was active in Ukraine, and they wanted to achieve independence from the Soviets, but the war broke out. Then, in the first years of the war, the OUN split into two camps: OUN (M) and OUN (B). The former were the main people who were in the OUN and the leader Melnyk (that's why there is an "m" next to the name). The second "camp" was led by Bandera, who wanted complete independence from everyone, but at that time it was impossible to achieve. Melnyk and his supporters wanted the Third Reich to give Ukraine autonomy within its borders (interesting fact: the Third Reich was the first country in the world to recognize the Holodomor as genocide of the Ukrainian people, and in general, the Germans treated Ukrainians well, as loyally as Ukrainians treated them, because even then Ukrainians knew perfectly well what "ruZZians" were) (we can also recall how the Soviets raped 2 million German women aged 8 to 80 during the occupation of Berlin). That is why no katsaps fought in the SS Galicia. NO NEED TO SPREAD LIES.

Not that military losing its appeal is a bad thing, but one can't deny that old military uniforms (WWII and older) look amazing and add to the romanticism. It's not crazy to assume that thousands of young Germans joined the SS not because of their staunch nazism but because they wanted to see themselves in those magnificent uniforms.

I did more research up this, and the "wallonien" division was basically any belgian that spoke french and didn't recognize as a "fleming", thus the wallonian SS uniforms *actually got belgian flags* instead of wallonian ones, the division name was kept though i believe, even though the wallonian division was much more then wallonia.

      The Walloons are originally Romanized Germanic tribes under the Roman Empire. And mixed even later with the Frankish tribes. This is the reason why the Vollsführer of Wallonia, Léon Degrelle, proclaimed "the Germanness" of the Walloons, which was recognized by the Reichsführer SS, Heinrich Himmler. The Walloon Legion carried the Belgian flag because walloon regionalism and separatism sentiment ware weak among French speakers. They remained attached to kingdom of Belgium. The legion, brigade then division Wallonia was not in a hostile perspective towards Belgium but as an army representing a part of Belgium, hence the maintenance of the national flag. However, the flag will be gradually eclipsed by the Burgundian flag which will become the core of Walloon nationalism. The people of Brussels will fight in the units for the Dutch speakers and the Walloons for the French speakers. The fate of Brussels was to become, as today, a region detached from Flanders as a city-Gau like Hamburg, Vienna and Berlin.

      Impossible to find that out except for a few. Landstorm Nederland's symbol is a fascist symbol from the NSB. Langemark is similar to the Germanic pagan symbols.

      38: the winged helmet of wotan/odin, the name refers to a famous german folk tale
      37: ?
      36: grenade is grenade, named after it's leader
      35: ?
      34: a variation of the "wolfsangel" rune, a symbol associated with a free spirit and a true warrior so basically the old germanic "sigma male"
      33: named after the founder of the holy roman empire aka the 1st reich and what l assume is his personal coat of arms
      32: the "tyr" rune associated with the northern warrior god of the same name
      31: jägermeister division??
      30: ?
      29: variation of the iron cross?
      29: symbol of the italian fascist party
      28: ?
      27: a version (slavic l believe) of the triskelion/triskele. A pagan holy symbol of stability/unity, the cosmos, life, nature and all things appearing in threes as is the law of god/s.
      26: ?
      25: ?
      24: ?
      23: ?
      23: what l assume is a stylized version of the "othala" rune depending on translation meaning home, family/tradition, wisdom or wealth
      22: ?
      21: the albanian eagle
      20: sword and euro symbol?
      19: jojo's glyph?
      18: sword
      17: named after a legendary german knight also known as "götz of the iron hand" who was known to fight in battle with a prosthetic metal arm after loosing his real hand to a point blank cannon blast. The picture should explain itself
      16: ?
      15: ?
      14: ?
      13: a sword probably an ottoman saber, since the division was exclusively composed of muslim converts from the balkans region
      12: ye olde "sieg" (victory) or "sovilo" (sun) rune as in the SS insignia, plus the key symbol of the leibstandarte, signaling these boys as in their name, to be the proteges of the true elite
      11: nordic swastika also known as the "sonnenrad" (sun wheel)
      10: stylized F but the name relates to an infamous general and mercenary leader from the late middle ages, often being credited for perfecting the landsknecht style of warfare. Revolutionizing the holy roman empire's armies from just mounted knights and peasant hordes into ranks of modern trained and payed soldiers
      9: ?
      8: horse and sword for cavalry division. Also named after another legendary knight, this one being sorta like the german robin hood or william wallace known for leading a peasent revolution, there's also a famous german folk song about him
      7: ?
      6: ?
      5: another nordic swastika
      4: could be a wolfsangel standig sideways or a stylized "eiwhaz" rune which amongst other things stands for defense and safety what would be about fitting for it being a police unit
      3: the favorite symbol of every pirate and 4chan edgelord, originating in polish and prussian cavalry units and was popularized in WWl by the infamous stormtrooper units and later the freikorps. Coming from such a grim background it would indeed live up to it's reputation, the 3rd being known as exterminators and the reapers of the holocaust supervising the einsatzgruppen and being in charge of concentration camps
      2: wolfsangel again
      1: hitler's elite "guards" as the name suggests. The key symbol being a reference to the unit's leader "dietrich" (a german name but simultaniously a word for key or general purpose tool to open locks)
      I guess l will pass my finals in nothern/germanic symbolism but l really should fresh up my eastern european lore, sorry for that lol.

      The Ruthenian lion (Ukrainian: Руський лев, romanized: Rus'kyi lev, Polish: Lew ruski), Ukrainian (Russiae) lion, or Halychian (Galician) lion[1] is a golden lion on an azure background. The lion was featured on the historic coat of arms of the Kingdom of Rus, the Ruthenian Voivodeship and the Western Ukrainian People's Republic. During the revolutions in the Austrian Empire in 1848, it became one of the national symbols of Ukrainians and the Ukrainian national liberation movement.

      29 (Russian) seems to be the Cross of St. George, or the Decoration of the Military Order of Saint George
      The other 29 (Italian) is actually called a Fasces, a bound bundle of wooden rods, sometimes including an axe with its blade emerging. The fasces is an Italian symbol that had its origin in the Etruscan civilization and was passed on to ancient Rome, where it symbolized a magistrate's power and jurisdiction
      26 and 25 are the symbol of the Arrowcross Party, which is the Hungarian Far-right ultranationalist party of the time, led by Ferenc Szálasi, which formed a government in Hungary they named the Government of National Unity
      7 is a modified version of the Othala Rune (Addition of "Feet" or Serfs"), symbolizing several values of central importance to Nazi ideology
      6 is a Hagal Symbol, its symbolic representation of "unshakeable faith" in Nazi philosophy, as Himmler put it. Basically just a symbol for 'Faith in Nazism'.
