Gendarmerie Battalion Gresser and Schwieger
Throughout 1944 within the Lublin district, Gendarmerie group Gresser -- which included the Gendarmerie groups led by Kurt Wuttke (group 1) and Karl Rogall (group 2) and the Polizei regiment 25 (see below for information on their leadership) -- took actions against Jews and partisans in the area. They were led by Erwin Gresser (born 1891), and after that by Erich Swieger (born 1900, killed Oct. 14, 1944).
Police Battalion 101
Police Battalion 101 had significant activity in the Lublin district, including on Nov. 3-4, 1943 in which 43,000 Jews were murdered from Majdanek and its sub-camps. Few of the participants were ever punished for their crimes.
Alfred Langerhaus*~: A member of regiment 25
(Suspected of participation in the shootings of 26,000 Jews in Lublin)
Dirlewanger Nazi Brigade
The leaders of the Reich Security Head Office decided to make Lublin a reservation for all of the Jews of Germany and occupied Europe. The question of territorial control was of crucial importance according to the Hitlerists. Thus, the Dirlwanger group was brought in from Berlin to secure the area for the Germans. The Dirlewanger unit had at first been formed out of poachers and criminals. There's a book about the brigade entitled "The History of the Black Hunters" by Ingrao. The group carried out the murders of Jews in the Lublin district, as with those listed elsewhere on this page. The below persons are just a small number of the total brigade, which numbered 7,500 fighters at its highest.
