Why not go straight to Dirlewanger? Fucking real horrorshow and only because he was given practically unlimited power over people despite being widely despised by his comrades and superiors, and he had been relatively harmless during peacetime and even "persecuted" by his own. Also the nightmare of WWI made him so. As explained by the top comment at https://www.quora.com/Who-was-Oskar-Dirlewanger (expand the top answer, skip the other answers and read elsewhere about him during WWII if you want so).

https://www.quora.com/Is-Nazi-officer-Oskar-Dirlewanger-depicted-in-any-movie being an interesting "technical" thread even as the top answer guy tries to whitewash them with just "some war crimes" which was is ridiculous as they hardly ever did anything but war crimes.

People will always be more attracted by stories than reality. They want things that shocks, not boring and “politically incorrect” historical facts. They will rather prefer a horror story of some band of nazi psychopaths who butchered an entire school even tho historically, besides rumors of some unknown eye witness there's no evidence of.

Yeah, except it wasn't a school, it was an orphanage (Christian Orthodox) and the guy can over come here an find the mass grave site near the restored Jan Klimak church. (The witness is also not "unknown", it was a German veteran, and he thought it was "some kind of school" because he had no idea, just a lot of children.) It was also nothing particularly special for Dirlewanger.

And Come and See is hardly "Soviet propaganda", and it's an allegory. It's so much different than let's say an usual Yugoslav partisan movie, the silly genre parodied in Underground. An interesting and even more "religious" Soviet partisan film is The Ascent.

Fascinating indeed.

And he practically only received a small slap on the wrist "Himmler, SS leader and right arm of Hitler, advises him to calm down and sends him to Spain in 36"

There was a quite The Kindly Ones style memoir of one of his men published recently: https://www.historynet.com/book-review-the-ss-sonderkommando-dirlewanger-edited-by-rolf-michaelis.htm

did nothing wrong

Oskar Dirlewanger is a case in point, a man whose vaulting ambition and sadistic cruelty facilitated his rapid rise from imprisoned pedophile to senior officer in the Waffen-SS, leading a private army of poachers, penal troops and foreign collaborators.

Thank you for this source. I shall add into the list. I do have to say that you may catch some hate from the stormcuckers posting here.
