Dear Shannon Reck,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
The National Archives at College Park, MD has in its holding copies of German Armed Forces Personnel Files available on Microfilm Publication A3356. Also, we suggest looking into the copies of the records on Microfilm Publication T315 “Records of German Field Commands: Divisions” as they may contain regimental records you are researching. These microfilm publications as well as a finding aid to both microfilm publications can be viewed free of charge in the Microfilm Reading Room at the National Archives at College Park, MD.
For more of German military information you may wish to contact the Bundesarchiv Abt. VI - Militärarchiv, Wiesentalstraße 10, 79115 Freiburg, Germany.
For records of the trials against Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski and Heinz Reinefarth please contact the Bundesarchiv Außenstelle Ludwigsburg as the trials were undertaken by German authorities.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
