Ultra rare Polizei Dienstpass (Service passport of the German Police) that belonged to a German policeman from Hannover. He was involved in crimes against humanity since his police battalion took part in the Warsaw Jewish ghetto liquidation between 20 march and 19 may 1943, under the direction of the SS-Gruppenfuhrer Jurgen Stroop. There's a very interesting entry in the Dienstpass that says in German: "Säuberungskampfe mit Truppen der Wehrmacht und der Waffen SS gegen Banden im ehemaligen judischen Wohnbezirk in Warschau" that could be translated as "Cleansing struggle with troops of the Wehrmacht and Waffen SS against bands in former Jewish residential district in Warsaw". This entry confirms that this policeman took part in the criminal liquidation of the Warsaw ghetto where 13000 Jews were assassinated in cruel repressive fights. Many policemen helped Jürgen Stroop's SS troops, as well as SD and polish and Jewish collaborationists (Ghetto police) as well as Ukrainian collaborationists. Police was under the SS rule and the OrPo (Ordungspolizei) took part in this infamous episode.

Dienstpass gives us many information. He was also in Police Battalion 112, involved in other ghetto liquidations in Poland and crimes against humanity and he was also in a Police Battalion 310 in Oranienburg, where KL Sachsenhausen was located.

 

Before getting to Warsaw he got vaccinated against typhus, which is also very interesting since it was in concentration camps and ghettos were outbreaks of typhus and other epidemics happened.

After this, he was transferred to the SS Police Regiment 22, with which took part in Warsaw Ghetto liquidation.
The 22nd SS Police Regiment helped to crush the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in April–May. Together with the 25th SS Police Regiment and other security forces, the regiment participated in Operation Harvest Festival (Aktion Erntefest) on 3–4 November, the massacre of 42,000 Jews imprisoned in the Majdanek extermination camp and several of its sub-camps. In July 1944, the regiment was transferred to Belarus and was destroyed there.

It's very likely that this policeman was killed in Belarus since there's no new entries after ghetto liquidation.

This document must be considered ultra rare. In 18 years of collecting we haven't seen any other Police Dienstpass with entries of the Warsaw Ghetto liquidation, and this one could be considered a jewel for any collector or museum, as a invaluable proof of the collaboration of the German Police in the assassination of thousands of Jews in Warsaw in 1943 during the Ghetto Uprising.
