Waffen-SS divisions
Order of Battle for numbers 26 (Hungaria) - 38 (Nibelungen)

Divisions of the Waffen-SS (26-38)

Many of these last divisiions were purely fictitious, in the sense that orders for their formation and deployment seldom reflected their actual available strength or combat readiness. Several nominal 'divisions' fielded no more than a few hundred ill-equipped men scrambled together from Volksdeutsche and bewildered foreigners, perhaps stiffened by members of a Waffen-SS training school.
