The General SS Flanders (Algemeene SS Vlaanderen) was originally founded in November 1940 and was one of the first collaborationist formations to become part of the Germanische SS in 1942. It was created as a political militia under the leadership of the radical flamingants René Lagrou and Ward Hermans. From 1943, it became associated with the radical political faction DeVlag which sought to supplant the larger and more conservative Flemish National Union (Vlaams Nationaal Verbond, VNV) as the principal collaborationist group in Flanders. Unofficially, Himmler wanted to use the organization to penetrate occupied Belgium, which was under the control of a military administration run by the German Army rather than the Nazi Party or SS. It was also used to staff the anti-Jewish units of the German security services with auxiliary staff and provided guards for the prison camp at Fort Breendonk. Under the leadership of Stormbanleider Robert Verbelen, DeVlag and the SS-Vlaanderen collaborated in the killings of civilians and public figures in notional reprisals for attacks committed by the Belgian Resistance. According to historian Jan Craeybeckx, "their 1944 raid in the Hageland near Leuven left a trail of death and destruction" and "countless people were deported to concentration camps." Alexandre Galopin, the incumbent governor of the Société Générale, was assassinated on Verbelen's orders in February 1944. As the Allies entered Belgium in September 1944, many of the perpetrators and collaborators fled to Germany. E-061; Dutch Edition; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 303 pages. Seller Inventory # 49215
