Original Note:
Even many volunteers weren't criminals. The Waffen-SS i.p. was regarded as an elite unit and, according to contemporary witnesses, the Soviets respected the Waffen-SS because of its fair combat actions. However, there were groups within the SS who committed horrific war crimes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NDM04D80t0
