Schutzstaffel

The Schutzstaffel meaning "Protective Squadron" more commonly known as the S.S. was a nazi Paramilitary organization, created by Adolf Hitler in the 1930s to protect him as his personal army.

Heinrich Himmler was the Schutzstaffel leader until the end of world war two.

In Indiana Jones, the Schutzstaffel apears as the main force that does the Nazi's "Dirty Work" such as hunting down the Jones's alongside the Gestapo.

Schutzstaffel donned black uniforms, a bright red swastika armband, and more features that distincted them. Famous members were Ernst Vogel and Heinrich Himmler.

The Schutzstaffel are NOT to be confused with the Waffen S.S. who was the S.S. army that fought in world war two.

They are also not to be confused with the Wermacht who was Germany's regular army.
