May it please the Tribunal, there are businessmen who are owners of several firms. If, now, the owner uses one of these firms to commit criminal acts, can we say that the other firms and their employees are also criminal? On the basis of this principle, I consider it necessary to point out which organizations, according to the reasons given by the Prosecution so far, are affected by the Indictment as units of the SS. They are:
1. The General SS -- strength at the beginning of the war, about 350,000 men. This number includes the variety of special units like cavalry, motor, information, music, and medical units.
2. The Waffen-SS, of which, at the end of the war, there were still under arms about 600,000 men. In the over-all number of Waffen-SS must be included about 36 divisions of the combat troops and a large number of reserve units of the reserve of the Armed Forces, as well as all those who were discharged from the Waffen-SS or who left in some other way. The verdict in this Trial would also affect the honor of the dead and the fate of their surviving relatives, so that the dead also will have to be included in this number which demonstrates the far-reaching significance of this Trial. Consequently, the total number of members of the Waffen-SS, especially when including those discharged as unfit for war service, would be many times larger than the figure representing the final strength.
On the basis of investigations under way the Defense will submit still more accurate figures, unless this is to be done by the Prosecution, which in my opinion ought to submit to the Court the information necessary for a verdict.
3. The Death's-Head Units -- before 1939, about 6,000 men.
4. SS troops for special employment, including the Adolf Hitler Bodyguard -- before 1939, about 9,000 men.
5. Honorary Fuehrer of the SS, whose number will probably turn out to be very large, as, for instance, the Farmer Leaders (BauernFuehrer) of the Reich Food Estate down to the District Farmer Leaders (KreisbauernFuehrer) were for the most part appointed honorary Fuehrer of the SS. Similar conditions prevail with respect to the chiefs of several branches of the state administration, who were often made honorary Fuehrer of the SS without any initiative on their part and without being able to do anything about it. Likewise many leaders of the Reich Veterans' League received honorary ranks in the SS.
6. The "supporting members" of the SS, among whom were also many non-Party members; their number is not yet known but it is certainly very considerable.
7. SS Front Line Auxiliaries of the Reich Post Office.
8. SS Construction Units.
9. SS Front laborers.
10. The entire Regular Police, to which belonged:
(a) The Municipal Police of the Reich with several special units, such as traffic squads, accident squads, information, cavalry, police dog squads, radio, and medical units; (b) the Gendarmerie with innumerable stations and posts, distributed all over the country, even in the smallest villages, which had rendered service without essential changes since Napoleon's time -- the motorized Gendarmerie supervised traffic; (c) the Municipal Police of smaller communities; (d) the Water Police; (e) the Fire Police; (I) the Technical Auxiliary Police Units, the Technical Emergency Service...
