This research area has been set-up by Janssen-Militaria. The main purpose is to provide collectors of German WW2 military collectibles with more information about their collection of documents, award documents, passes (Wehrpass, Soldbuch etc.), photos and signatures of high ranking Waffen-SS members and NSDAP and police leaders with a SS rank. Similar areas will be made for Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe, Kriegsmarine, SA, HJ and BDM in the future, and also research areas for uniforms, insignia, medals, helmets etc.
