Flemish Waffen-SS registration forms and documents

The earliest Flemish Waffen SS registration form dates back to 1940; once completed, it had to be sent to Karl Leib at Begijnenvest 16, Antwerp, Flanders, under the heading "Ergänzungsamt der Waffen SS, Ergänzungsstelle NW" (Northwest). This registration form was for SS Standarte Westland.

This particular copy bears the stamp "Einzusenden an Begijnenvest 16, Antwerpen," indicating that the form was issued after a dedicated recruitment office was established in Antwerp.

Previously, the exact same form was also circulated without this stamp. The unstamped version was intended for both Dutch and Flemish volunteers. At that time, there was no recruitment office in Flanders, and Flemish volunteers had to register via the recruitment office in The Hague. Only after the establishment of the first Flemish recruitment office in Antwerp was the form modified with the stamp, so that registrations could be sent directly there.

Recruitment pamphlet for the Waffen SS, likely around 1941, as recruitment for the Flemish Legion had not yet begun. This pamphlet dates from before July 1941 (the establishment of the Flemish Legion). 

The very first recruitment pamphlet that appeared in July 1941 for the Flemish Legion. At this time, it was still called the Flemish Volunteer Regiment.
