"Then, out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate, To every man upon this earth, death cometh, soon or late. And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds, For the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his gods?"


Introduction "Just as the discovery of the earth’s revolution around the sun led to a revolutionary change of the general view of the world, so will the blood and race teachings of the National Socialist movement produce a transformation of the knowledge and hence of the view of the history of the human past and its future." --- Adolf Hitler

Editor’s note: The Waffen SS was viewed in a romantic light by many of its German and foreign members. The following quotations from several official Waffen SS books captures some of that strange SS romanticism.

The SS Calls You! Published by the Reichsführer-SS SS Hauptamt, Berlin-Wilmersdorf 1, Hohenzollerndamm 31 When I speak of this infantry, I wish today to first of all especially stress the ever constant and exemplary courage and hardness of my good SS divisions and SS police units. I have always viewed them as an unshakable troop – as obedient, loyal and brave in war as they swore to be in peace. – Adolf Hitler, 26 April 1942

German Lad! This SS publication is aimed at you, our young front fighters of tomorrow. You should become more familiar with the spirit which the SS is endowed, with the leadership, organization, equipment and weapons of the troop that stands especially


close to the Führer and that has a proud role in the German victories in the west and the east, in the north and the south. You know that is it the duty of every German to be a soldier and to prove himself as a soldier. But those young German who stand out from the rest in bearing and character want to be more than soldiers; they do not want to wait until they are drafted; they want to fight as volunteers. The special tasks of the Schutzstaffel require the unchanging laws of selection to be applied and the most valuable forces to be won for the SS. Full of confidence, the young German should undergo the suitability examination to see whether he is suited for the Waffen SS and healthy. Even if rejected, many possibilities remain to be fully utilized for the nation. One often says the men of the Waffen SS are real go-getters. That is true, but not in the sense that action in the SS is not based on careful planning and superior leadership. The Waffen SS officers are all a hundredfold proven, experienced and schooled men. The losses of the Waffen SS correspond to the hardness of the action, but they are procent-wise neither higher nor lower than those of other army units. If you follow the call of the SS and as a volunteer enter the ranks of the great front of the SS divisions, you will belong to a troop that since the very start


has aimed at special accomplishment and which has hence developed a comradeship of special depth. You will be an arms-bearer in a troop that comprises the most valuable forces of the young German generation. Beyond that you are especially bound to the National Socialist worldview. Your comrades come from all German provinces and ethnic German areas. In its ideological extension, the Waffen SS also embraces volunteers of other Germanic countries. This military community with SS comrades from Norway, Denmark, Holland and Flanders as well as the volunteers from Finland is a great contribution to the realization of that new community of fate in Europe for which this core troop has made itself the champion and embodiment. The youth of the National Socialist Reich know that they must themselves make an effort in order to perform their military service in the Waffen SS. That so many young Germans volunteer for the Waffen SS is strong testimony for the trust the present young generation places especially in the Waffen SS, its spirit and above all its leadership. But it is also a proud proof for the ideologically firm bearing of this German youth, that they have understood the purpose of the struggle of the SS and know precisely why the Waffen SS forms a community especially obligated to the Führer. So on your belt buckle the motto stands that the Führer himself awarded to his SS on April 1, 1931:


MY HONOR IS MY LOYALTY! FROM FREE WILL To You! You ask me why I went. Why I put on the grey uniform from my own free will and without order started the march of which both of us, you and I, do not know how it will end and whether the day will come when we will meet again. What can it be, you ask further, that tears me from your arms and puts me on a path that leads away from you? You had the belief that only you had influence on my days and now you are disappointed. You see that something else is greater and stronger, and causes me to trade my life in tender security for one of constant danger and a totally unknown future. You have overlooked one thing: that I am a man – and a German! Didn’t you feel during the past few months how I suffered, how everything in me fevered to participate in our folk’s great sacrifice? Didn’t you feel that I felt inferior as long as I was not allowed to bear a weapon? That I feared to be an outcast who is not worthy to fight the Führer’s battle? Five times I requested and for the first time even begged: Accept me! And when the messenger handed me the order to report, the hand accepting it trembled. Forgive me, but that was and is and remains the hour of my greatest joy!


I made it! I am a soldier! Never before had an experience moved me so deeply! The hard days of training came. It was a test. I passed it. The day of the swearing in came. I was in bed in camp with my leg in a cast. "You stay there!" "I will come along!" I begged in a very unsoldierly manner – that was the second time in my life: Take me along! I want to go into the field, and without being sworn in I will not be allowed to go. They took me along. They drove him there and put me into the ranks. My foot hurt, but I stood firm! We sang the song of loyalty. And with a voice overcome by emotion – so great was the excitement – I spoke the holy oath. Weeks passed. My great wish was fulfilled: I stand in the field! I am a combat messenger. The baptism of fire is well behind me. Not too long ago I received the Iron Cross from the hand of the commander in recognition of my conduct. You can never image what that hour means to me! My heart wants to


explode – it is so full of pride and joy. I have become a soldier from my own free will and I only had the one great wish to pass the test and prove myself worthy of the honor that allows me to wear the same uniform that our Führer wears. Everything that happened as a result I have accepted as the gift of a higher power. It made the enemy bullets miss my heart; it showed the path on my message deliveries; it guided my steps through dark nights when death and horror lurked and still lurk. I thank it for the knowledge that this German folk is my folk, that this Germany is my homeland and that the Führer is also my Führer! That I have been born in this time, that I am healthy and can devote my whole energy to this work of which the future will say: In these days Germany was finally resurrected to an unprecedented greatness and immortal glory. Lord, how did I earn this good fortune? Do you still want to ask, why? So let me tell you. I want to serve my folk, to accompany it on the path to power and to help to pave this path that has no precedent. This splendidly magnificent folk should finally stand where it belongs. Never again a servant, rather eternally and for always master. It should win life where all others perish. Now the yearning should and must and will become reality, that German


greatness finds recognition in the world. This is neither power madness nor revenge: Germany will unify after victory. Germania’s tribes participate in the creation of a new world and being a man receives a new purpose. For this goal one may not speak or write; the starting point can never be the desk. For this goal one must fight. For only on the battlefield where the men stand grows something valid, enduring and great. Only from blood-drenched earth rises the seed of rebirth that will plough down the old, decayed and dead in order to bear new life. That is the reason why I am here and not there with you. Why I shoot and do not speak, why I lie and crawl in Russian dirt, although the soft pillow would certainly be more comfortable. I do not want comfortable rest and find no pleasure in a life of bourgeois satisfaction as long as the holy goal has not been won. I know I was not called by citizen’s duty. I have, or rather I had, a passport of neutral nationality, and nobody could have stopped me from hiding behind the "right to wait". But I do not want that; I cannot and I will not! In my veins flows German blood; in my heart pounds passionately a German heart; and my senses feel and think German! I did not have the duty to go. What drove me was German yearning, was the faith in my folk that is German to the


bone, German and only German, even if a whole world denies and contests it. In me is faith and only faith. But it is so strong that every wave breaks against it. For this faith I once sat in prison in the smaller homeland. For this faith I now stand in the field: completely warrior and fanatically loving! Let yourself, immortal beloved, be drawn into the ecstasy of feeling. Let yourself be seized by the power of faith. Give to this Germany that I am - and will one day die - what your great heart alone can give and take from it, like I, as thanks the joy of highest fulfillment of duty, because it is from free will. And if I do not return, do not mourn and do not walk in black through Germany’s free provinces. Bear with proud head what has been placed upon your heart. And if one looks at your questioning, compose your voice and tell him: I did indeed give everything, but it is nothing at all compared to what I owe my Führer. So do I see in life and in death the deep, German meaning and willingly give up what I received in the blood of my German ancestors. Lord, bless this proud, free will. Give me the strength to always and every hour serve it. For the folk’s benefit and piety that I love with every fiber of my being and of my hot heart.


Finally, you began to speak again. "The voluntariness, with which the soldier decides for the acceptance of the most dangerous duty, is the measuring stick with which his honorable bearing should be measured. And on the path of honor he remains, he who in the struggle with temptation makes the will triumph and inescapably, without paying heed to the countless temptations which seek to bribe him to preserve his own life at the cost of duty, fulfills the demands of the soldierly law. In the terrible struggle of the last years, amid the downfall of all bourgeois concepts, the sense of the old soldiers among us for the demands which lie above the daily routine was sharpened. Who by the hour encounters death with all its terrors, he seeks and finds soldier’s honor, before whose radiance the darkness of death pales. Why, when the timid eagerly grabbed the welcomed opportunity to break off the fight, did the soldiers remain at lost posts? Because they were honorable, you understand. Honorable even then, when nobody was there to see dishonor in retreat. Honor is thus independent of praise and blame, it needs to witness, no external formula, no charter. It cannot be bestowed, it also does not need to be defended. The honor of the soldier is the idea of voluntariness to make the sacrifices which the life of the nation demands without any consideration. Hence he has honor, who serves this duty."


Chapter 1

The Death’s Head According to legend, the Skull and Cross Bones emblem has, for centuroes past, shouted the battle cry to Christendom’s enemies, “Warning, Danger, Destruction and Death!” The Skull and Croos Bones warns that the military and religious Orders of Christian Knighthood are the swift and terrible bearers of danger, destruction and death to the enemies of Christ, and the enemies of Western Christendom. The Templar Knights chose the emblem wisely, as a banner to instill terror into the hearts of the muslim enemy and as fair warning to all who dared to oppose them in the Holy Crusade upon which they were embarked. It was no idle threat!

Skull Symbolism A skull is representative of death and mortality. A symbol of the transitory nature life and death, the skull is frequently a prime feature of symbolism. Sometimes skulls are seen with wings (called death's heads or winged death--


representing the fleeting nature of life and impending death) or with crossed bones beneath it (representing death and the crucifixion).

Celtic Cult of the Head The Celtic cult of the head is represented in carvings of the La Tène culture, an Iron Age culture named for the archaeological site found in Switzerland, north of Lake Neuchâtel. The Celts believed that the decapitated head represented capturing the soul’s enemy and many Celtic legends remain regarding the pursuit of Celtic bands of their enemies. The severed head was symbolic of spiritual power and was often impaled on a stick, as it was believed that the head would sing and therefore warn the Celts that their enemies were advancing. The ancient Celts fondness for art and personal decoration was merged with acts of barbarism, such as beheading their enemies and carrying the severed heads around the necks of their horses. The head was the ultimate source of spiritual power; to posses the enemies head, was to posses his spirit. Riding naked on fast moving, light chariots, shrieking and swinging large hacking swords and throwing spears was a most effective method of warfare for instilling terror into their enemies.


Ancient Skull and Bones Symbolism The image of the Skull and Crossbones is recognized in the popular imagination the world over first and foremost as the flag flown by pirates on the high seas going about their business of looting, rape and murder — it seemingly being nothing more than a device meant to strike fear into the hearts of those who saw a ship flying the dreaded flag bearing down on them. Although the effect would have been existent in those on the receiving end of the banner bearing the Skill and Crossbones, there is a whole lot more to the origin, use and meanings of the symbol; such a simple explanation does not suffice.

Knights Templar: Skull and Bones The accusation that the Templar Knights worshipped the head was first made during the trials held against the group in the fourteenth century.


Theory suggests that the Templars were practitioners of the cult of the severed head, a cult which dates back to ancient times and which has also been associated with the Celtic cult. The Templars, formed in 1118 and ‘disbanded’ in 1307, are surrounded by myth and legend, from searching and reputedly finding the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant, sacred Gnostic texts even more dangerous than those found by the Dead Sea or at Nag Hammadi in Egypt. Then there is the disappearance of their naval fleet from La Rochelle just before King Phillipe of France moved to have all Templars arrested and their assets seized. Some say, while agreeing the Templars most probably did make a couple of trans-Atlantic crossings prior to Columbus famed journey of 1492, the La Rochelle fleet more likely found a safe haven in Scotland as the nation and its King, Robert the Bruce, were excommunicated by Rome at the time and therefore somewhat beyond the reach of Papal Bulls and Edicts. The very Scottish victory over the English at Bannockburn in 1314, that which ended English designs on Scotland, was due to a mounted charge of Templars throwing themselves into the fray late in the day. The connection here with the Skull and Crossbones is that it was the Templars marine battle flag. The Scottish destination of the Templars in 1307 is further implied by the tale relating that Robert the Bruce’s remains were placed in such a ‘skull and crossbones’ manner,


though the more concrete evidence is that of a large number of Templar gravestones found in Scotland, not to mention the very existence of Rosslyn Chapel. What is more, the concentration of these anonymous, Spartan gravestones, as the centuries go by gradually develop more elaborate, florid and decidedly Masonic, incorporating both the Masonic square and compass and on some examples, the skull and crossbones itself in place of the single, undated flat stones bearing the outline of the particular knights sword.

Freemasonry The use of the Skull and Crossbones in Freemasonry, is nearly as prevalent as the ubiquitous square and compass; being a feature of the hilt of ceremonial swords, embroidered on the aprons or sashes worn by brethren or most impressively, stirringly employed in the ritual of the 33rd degree, from whence on completion a Mason is thereafter a Master Mason. The 33rd degree is a ritual raising from the dead following the candidate’s re-enactment of the first Mason — Hiram Abiff’s death at the hands of the traitors Jubela, Jubelo and Jubelum, the three Juwees. Already noted is the strange attire worn during the ceremony, which is exactly as a condemned heretic was brought to the gallows in the Middle Ages. The Skull and Crossbones themselves are placed on the death shroud from which the brother is raised, the ‘Worshipful Master’ (a masonic ‘master of ceremonies’)


then explains the bones are ‘emblems of mortality’, from which this rite of initiation could be speculated to be a revelation of the illusory nature of the material realm, as well as being a figurative death within the brother of those elements of his person rooted in the physical world and our five most basic senses used to interact and interpret it — eternity awaits…

Medieval Roots of German Skull and Bones Symbolism Medieval German literature and romantic poems were filled with references to dark forces and the symbols of death and destruction, a typical example being the following short excerpt from an epic work by the 15th-century writer Garnier von Susteren: 'Behold the knight In solemn black manner, With a skull on his crest And blood on his banner...'

In 1740, a jawless death's head with the bones lying behind the skull, embroidered in silver bullion, adorned the black funeral trappings of the Prussian king, Friedrich Wilhelm I. In his memory, the Leib-Husaren Regiments 1 and 2, elite Prussian Royal Bodyguard units which were formed the following year, took black as the color of their uniforms and wore a massive Totenkopf of similar design on their Pelzmützen or busbies.


The State of Brunswick followed suit in 1809, when the death's head was adopted by its Hussar Regiment 17 and the third battalion of Infantry Regiment 92.

The Brunswick Totenkopf differed slightly in design from the Prussian one, with the skull facing forward and situated directly above the crossed bones. In Britain the 17th Lancers adopted the skull and cross bones in Victorian times.


The Prussian nobility adopted the skull and cross bones as their emblem before and during the Victorian era.

Prussian Price with Death Heads Emblem on his Hat Even Prussian princesses wore death heads adorned uniforms. The emblem was of great psychic significance to the Prussian nobility.


The Prussian nobility even formed entire cavalry regiments decorated with the Skull and Bones.

The Birth of America’s Skull and Bones, 1830s Sometime in the early 1830s, a Yale student named William H. Russell, future valedictorian of the class of 1833, traveled to Germany to study for a year. Russell came from an inordinately wealthy family that ran one of America’s most despicable business organizations of the nineteenth century: Russell and Company, an opium empire. Russell would later become a member of the Connecticut state legislature, a general in the Connecticut National Guard, and the founder of the Collegiate and Commercial Institute in New Haven. While in Germany, Russell befriended the leader of an insidious German secret society that hailed the death’s head as its logo. Russell soon became caught up in this group, itself a sinister outgrowth of the notorious eighteenth-century society the Illuminati.


When Russell returned to the United States, he found an atmosphere so Anti-Masonic that even his beloved Phi Beta Kappa, the honor society, had been unceremoniously stripped of its secrecy. Incensed, Russell rounded up a group of the most promising students in his class including Alphonso Taft, the future secretary of war, attorney general, minister to Austria, ambassador to Russia, and father of future president William Howard Taft-and out of vengeance constructed the most powerful secret society the United States has ever known.

American Skull and Bones Fraternity Emblem A list of some methods used by "Skull and Bones" to aid the establishment of Communism: 1) Amos Pinchot (Skull and Bones) a founder of the American Civil Liberties Union ... and William Kent (Skull and Bones) of the U.S. Tariff Commission lobbied


congressmen for favorable trade with the communist killers who were struggling to secure their power from the people. 2) Thomas D. Thacher (Skull and Bones) law partner at 120 Broadway of Simpson, Thacher and Bartlett) wrote a memorandum that ... encouraged recognition of the Reds, Thacher insisted that American military assistance be used to keep the Japanese out of Siberia, ... give moral support and favorable trade for the newly entrenched Communists. ... Thatcher's reward was the induction of his son Thomas Day Thacher into the (Skull and Bones). His son worked for Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson (Skull and Bones), who later headed up the "postwar committee" BEFORE World War II. 3) The chairman of the American-Russian Chamber of Commerce was Samuel R. Bertron (Skull and Bones) Samuel was also Vice President of Guaranty Trust at 140 Broadway. Samuel had gone on the Elihu Root (1917) Mission to Russia to aid the ruthless Red revolution. A leading Skull and Bones member, General George C. Marshall, bragged that he single handedly disarmed 39 anti-communist divisions in China "with the stroke of a pen." George Marshall also countermanded General MacArthur's order to Lieutenant General Stratemeyer to destroy the six Yalu bridges the Chinese were using to cross over into Korea to massacre US soldiers in South Korea. . General


Stratemeyer testified ... "We were required to lose the war. WE WEREN'T ALLOWED TO WIN."

The German Death Head of World War I During World War I, the death's head was chosen as a formation symbol by a number of crack German army units, particularly the storm troops, flamethrower detachments and tank battalions. Several pilots, including the air ace Leutnant Georg von Hantelmann, also used variants of it as personal emblems.

Foreign armies also used death heads insignia in World War I. The Austrohungarians and Italians both issued death heads badges to their elite troops.


Almost immediately after the end of hostilities in 1918 the death's head appeared again, this time painted on the helmets and vehicles of some of the most famous Freikorps units. Because of its association with these formations it became symbolic not only of wartime daring and self-sacrifice but also of postwar traditionalism, anti-Liberalism and anti-Bolshevism. Nationalist ex-servicemen even had death's head rings, cuff links, tie pins and other adornments privately made for wear with their civilian clothes. It is not surprising, therefore, that members of the Stosstruppe Adolf Hitler eagerly took the Totenkopf as their distinctive emblem in 1923, initially acquiring a small stock of appropriate army surplus cap badges. Their successors in the SS thereafter contracted the firm of Deschler in Munich to restrike large quantities of the Prussian-style jawless death's head, which they used on their headgear for the next 11 years. As Hitler's personal guards they liked to model themselves on the Imperial bodyguard Hussars, who had become known as the 'Schwarze Totenkopfhusaren' or 'Black Death's Head Hussars', and were fond of singing their old regimental song with its emotive verse: In black we are dressed, In blood we are drenched, Death's head on our helmets. Hurrah! Hurrah! We stand unshaken!


The Waffen SS Version of the Death Heads Of all SS uniform trappings and accoutrements, the one emblem which endured throughout the history of the organization and became firmly associated with it was the death's head or Totenkopf. It has often been assumed that the death's head was adopted simply to strike terror into the hearts of those who saw it. In fact, it was chosen as a direct and emotional link with the past, and in particular with the elite military units of the Imperial Reich.

When, in 1934, the Prussian-style Totenkopf began to be used as an elite badge by the new army Panzer units (which were, after all, the natural successors to the Imperial cavalry regiments), the SS devised its own unique pattern of grinning death's head, with lower jaw, which it wore thereafter. The 1934-pattern SS Totenkopf ultimately took various forms right-facing, left-facing and front-facing and appeared on the cloth headgear of all SS members


and on the tunics and vehicles of the SS Totenkopfverbände and Waffen SS Totenkopf-Division.

Also Worn By Heer Grossdeutshland Division Panzers It was the centerpiece of the SS Death's Head Ring, and could be seen on dagger and gorget chains, mess jackets, flags, standards, drum covers, trumpet banners and the SS and Police Guerrilla Warfare Badge. Moreover, because of its direct associations with Danzig, where the Prussian Leib Husaren Regiments had been garrisoned until 1918 it was selected as the special formation badge of the SS Heimwehr Danzig and the Danzig Police and Fire Service. Himmler wanted his men to be proud of their heritage, and there is no doubt that the honorable military associations of the German Death's Head were well used to that end. It became an instant status symbol in the Third Reich, and an inspiration to those who were granted the privilege of wearing it.

Wehrmacht Death Heads (Totenkopf) It is worth mentioning that the Totenkopf was also borne by several Wehrmacht elements such as the 5th Cavalry Regiment, the I7th Infantry Regiment, the naval Küstenschutz Danzig, and the Luftwaffe's Schleppgruppe 4 and Kampfgruppe 5 during World War 11.

Many elite units of other nations have likewise used the death's head emblem at various times. These include the British Royal Navy submarine service and 7th Lancers, Mussolini's bodyguard, certain US special forces, Imperial Russian Cossacks, Polish tank crews, Finnish cavalry and the French security police,


to name but a few. Bulgaria even had a Military Order for Bravery in World War I which was graded 'With Skulls'.

Death Heads Rings A more completely modern usage of the Skull and Crossbones, in this instance referred to as the Death’s Head, was among the SS of Nazi era Germany. Apart from its most visible use on the officers caps, it is probably most famously, or infamously, prominent use was the very highly regarded Totenkopf ring/Deaths Head Ring awarded to SS officers in recognition of their “personal achievement, devotion to duty, and loyalty to the Führer and his ideals.” Though to say what reasons the SS had for adopting the Deaths Head/Skull and Crossbones beyond a connection with the past German military units who also used the symbol in their insignia, an ongoing tradition. The reverence with which the Totenkopf rings were


held intimates something greater than mere military insignia. Upon death or on leaving the SS, the officers rings were returned to officialdom whereon they were sent to the SS castle of Wewelsburg in Wesphalia where they were placed in a particular chest kept in the castle’s main tower. Though rarely more than a footnote in history books, Wewelsburg was ultimately of more import to the SS; it was to be reconstructed as the most sacred temple of the SS, emulating Camelot of the Knights of the Round Table. At the center of the Wewelsburg complex, the castle said to house the Holy Grail and/or the Ark of the Covenant. Essentially, the castle, more so than the surrounding planned township, was conceived to be the mystical axis of the world — in an esoteric sense, the center from which all universal creative movement is imparted.
