Several thousand ethnic Germans in Romania (the so-called Volksdeutscher) were drafted into the Waffen-SS in 1943. With these new troops, Himmler built up the new 11th Waffen-SS Division. To fill the ranks, Division “Nordland” also took over battalion-strength units from Danmark and Norway, though 90 percent of the division were Volksdeutsche from Romania. They were first used incombat in Croatia, the Oranienbaumer, Estonia, and Latvia. After the Soviet attack in Pomerania, they fought in Berlin and were destroyed there.
