SS DEATH HEAD COMMANDER: THEODOR EICKE (OCTOBER 17, 1892 TO FEBRUARY 26, 1943)



            On this date, February 26, 1943, one of Hitler’s most evil henchmen, Theodor Eicke was killed in action. I will post information about this SS-Obergruppenführer from Wikipedia and other links.

 
Theodor Eicke
Theodor Eicke (17 October 1892 – 26 February 1943) was an SS-Obergruppenführer (German General), commander of the SS-Division (mot) Totenkopf of the Waffen-SS and one of the key figures in the establishment of concentration camps in Nazi Germany. His Nazi Party number was 114,901 and his SS number was 2,921. Together with SS-Obersturmbannführer Michael Lippert, Eicke executed SA Chief Ernst Röhm following the Night of the Long Knives purge.
