Herbert Otto Gille with SS-Standarte Germania


Members of the SS-Standarte "Germania" with their commanders sat at the front. From left to right: SS-Obersturmbannführer Werner Dörffler-Schuband (Kommandeur I.Sturmbann / SS-Standarte "Germania", based in Hamburg-Veddel), SS-Sturmbannführer Herbert Otto Gille (Kommandeur II.Sturmbann / SS-Standarte "Germania", headquartered in Arolsen), SS-Standartenführer Karl Maria Demelhuber (Kommandeur SS-Standarte "Germania"), and SS-Obersturmbannführer Heinrich Koeppen (Kommandeur III.Sturmbann / SS-Standarte "Germania", headquartered in Radolfzell). This photo was taken by Heinz Hillebrecht in Nuremberg on 5-12 September 1938 during the Reichsparteitag (Reich Party Day). This was the second participation of SS-Standarte "Germania" in the annual event, after the first one a year earlier. Now this photo is in the private collection of Markus Wolter.
