      An excellent warrior! Does anyone know of other graduates of the Bad Tölz officers academy, that were notables during WWII? Curious...

        Not of that school but of the same kind of balls - Major-General Lewis MacKenzie and the Sarajevo Airport relief with a single HQ company armed only with pistols.

          Not bad at all. Kurt Meyer was another SS man who had some guts. Read about his capture of Tarnopol with a single recce batallion.
