Who were the SS officers during World War 2?

Many of them escaped to Argentina after the war. Most officers of the SS and SS men had their blood type tattod on their arm and this gave up many of them to the allies who were actively hunting war criminals. To combat this, the SS burned their uniforms, traded with other regular Heer, and some even tried to cut the tatto off of their arms to escape certain death from the Russians. There were always exceptions to this though. One of the worst war criminals Joeseph Mengela a camp doctor and did not have the blood type on his arm. He escaped to Argentina after the war and died because he drowned on a beach at a very old age.


What letters are placed after an officer's name to indicate he is a Supply Officer who is Qualified in Submarines?

The Warfare Designation letters for those like myself who are or have been Qualified in Submarines is "SS". For example, my own rate/rank is STS1(SS), which stands for "Sonar Technician, Submarines, First Class(Submersible Ships)" Generally, specialty officers (officers who aren't Line Officers, such as Doctors or Pork Chops (Supply Officers)) are titled with their particular specialty as letters after their rank and name. For example, a Supply Lt. named Donald Mason, who is Qualified in Submarines, would be: Lt. Donald Mason, SO(SS) - where "SO" denotes Supply Officer, and SS is Submersible Ships, or Qualified in Submarines. Specialty officers also wear insignia denoting their particular area of expertise on their collar along with their rank insignia. For example, Line Officers wear rank insignia on both collars (a Lt. would wear railroad tracks on both sides) but an SO would wear Lt. bars on one side and the Supply Corps insignia on the other collar.
