Hi, Sorry to answer only now, but I have given my book to one of my friend and he give it back only yesterday. Dirlewanger was taken prisonner by French soldiers in Souabe in june 1945. He was in Althausen camp. He was taken prisonner after a jew proclaim him to French autority. This jew was a survivor of Dzikow camp and he recognize Dirlewanger. During his captivity, Dirlewanger was interrogate by French and Polish soldiers. The Polish claims to judge all the people who were at the head of concentration camp. That's an explanation. The jailers beat Dirlewanger several days and he died from injuries. I hope that you can find this book one day in english. It's very intrustive. Several years ago I have met this autor, and I remember he was an interresting man. Regards Christophe
