The SS was declared a criminal organization by the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg.
Members of this unit swore allegiance to the Fuhrer and the perverted racial ideology of the Nazis.
The First Ukrainian Waffen Division members are accused of killing Polish and Jewish civilians, although the unit has not been found guilty of any war crimes by a tribunal, the BBC reported.
