Brandenburgers
The Brandenburgers ((ドイツ語:Brandenburger)) were members of the ''Brandenburg'' German Special Forces unit during World War II.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Weider History Group )〕
==Summary==
Units of ''Brandenburger''s operated in almost all fronts – the invasion of Poland, Denmark and Norway, in the Battle of France, in Operation ''Barbarossa'', in Finland, Greece and the invasion of Crete, Romania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia. Some units were sent to infiltrate India, Afghanistan, Middle East countries and South Africa. They also trained for Operation ''Felix'' (the planned seizure of Gibraltar), and Operation ''Sea Lion'' (the planned invasion of Great Britain). The unit had considerable successes early in the war acting as advance units that captured strategic bridges, tunnels and rail yards in Poland and the Netherlands.
The unit was the brainchild of Hauptmann (Captain) Theodor von Hippel who, after having his idea rejected by the traditionalist ''Reichswehr'', approached Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, commander of the German Intelligence Service, the ''Abwehr''.
Regiment ''Brandenburg'' evolved out of the ''Abwehrs 2nd Department, and was used as a commando unit during the first years of the war. Initially the unit consisted mainly of former German expatriates fluent in other languages. Until 1944 it was an OKH unit rather than a unit of the regular army (''Heer''). The unit steadily expanded until it was reallocated to the ''Großdeutschland'' Panzer Korps to be used as a frontline combat unit.
