Summary
| Description |
English: Inspection of Belarusian Auxiliary Police unit by Bürgermeister Radasłaŭ Astroŭski (Астроўскі; Polish: Radosław Ostrowski), after Nazi German attack on the Soviet forces in Operation Barbarossa of 1941. Astrouski fled with the retreating German armies. Note: As a matter of course, the indigenous auxiliary police were given black uniforms from the pre-war German SS stock which was no longer used and kept in storage. The black uniforms of the former Allgemeine-SS including their characteristic cuffs, and field caps, were simply stripped of German insignia and given to Schutzmannschaft to use with their own new patches. The same surplus uniforms utilized by Belarusian Auxiliary Police were also worn by the Ukrainian Auxiliary Police in Reichskommissariat Ukraine. Mobile extermination units were outfitted with field-grey uniforms. Because of that, the presence of local police becomes recognizable also in photographs of mass executions. -- Gordon Williamson (2012) German Security and Police Soldier 1939-45, Osprey Publishing, p. 44 ISBN: 1782000070. Polski: Inspekcja nazistowskiej Białoruskiej Policji Pomocniczej przez Radosława Ostrowskiego na okupowanym terytorium, w niezidentyfikowanym miejscu i czasie po niemieckiej operacji Barbarossa. |
