Oskar Dirlewanger created an SS penal battalion known variously as SS-Sonderkommando Dirlewanger, SS Sondereinheit Dirlewanger, the Dirlewanger Brigade, the Black Hunters, or the 36th SS Grenadier Division. This unit was full of criminals who took part in numerous "anti-partisan" operations in Belarus, Slovakia, and Hungary. It also engaged the Polish Home Army and civilians at Warsaw. This is the history of the unit and its commander. YOUTUBE CENSORS: I've self-censored this video to conform with YouTube's Community Guidelines. There are no images of the crimes discussed, and I've avoided some of the more gory details of the events. I've also issued TWO warnings to viewers at the beginning of the video and have not monetized it either.

I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do. This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
