The Frikorps Danmark or Danish Free Corps was a Danish volunteer corps that was created by the Danish National Socialist Workers Party (DNSAP) in cooperation with Nazi Germany, to fight against the Soviet Union during World War II. On June 29, 1941, days after the German invasion of the Soviet Union, the DNSAP newspaper Fædrelandet proclaimed the creation of the body. Its formation was later sanctioned by the democratically elected Danish government and authorized Danish Army officers to join the unit.1 The corps was disbanded in 1943. During the course of the war, approximately 6,000 Danes joined the corps, including 77 officers of the Royal Danish Army. At the end of July 1941, with approximately 1,000 recruits, the corps was sent to the Langenhorn barracks in Hamburg. She was deemed ready for action on 15 September and was shipped to Owińska in Poland. C.P. Kryssing was dismissed in February 1942 for insufficient ideological support for Nazism. He was transferred to the artillery where he actually finished his career as a general. Christian Frederik von Schalburg, a Danish-Russian aristocrat, anti-communist and member of the DNSAP who had grown up in Russia and had seen the consequences of the Russian revolution in 1917, replaced Kryssing as leader of the Frikorps Danmark. On May 8, 1942, the corps was brought to the front line. They fought near Demiansk, south of Lake Ilmen and Novgorod. During the night of June 2, Schalburg was murdered. Hans Albert von Lettow-Vorbeck, his German replacement, was assassinated a few days later. On 11 July 1942, Knud Børge Martinsen took command of the Corps. From August to October, they returned to Denmark and were met with much hostility from the civilian population. On 13 November 1942, the Corps was deployed to Jelgava, Latvia. Originally, it was intended for anti-partisan activities, but was later moved to the front line. In December, the corps met at the Battle of Velikiye Luki in intense fighting, together with the 1st SS Infantry Brigade. Members of the Frikorps Danmark taking the oath in 1941.
