The book "Nazi Millionaires" identifies an SS Obergrupperfuhrer named von Sauberzweig charged with graft and corruption in occupied Warsaw circa 1940. Is this the same character ?

Kenneth A. Alford & Theodore P. Savas, Nazi Millionaires: The Allied Search for Hidden SS Gold (Casemate; 2002) ISBN-10: 0971170967 , page 33.

Also : Generalmajor Traugott Martin von Sauberzweig - any relation ?

Place of death

What is the source supporting that Sauberzweig died in Preetz? The sources I know of, which I can provide if needed, claim that he comitted suicide in Internment Camp (Internierungslager) Neuengamme. —Jake V (talk) 16:40, 1 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Well, obviously you would need to provide a source for that anyway, but it's a good question. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 03:08, 2 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
The published sources that support Neuengamme are:
  • Wolfgang Keilig (1983): Die Generale des Heeres. Podzun–Pallas–Verlag, p. 291
  • Reinhard Stumpf (1982): Die Wehrmacht–Elite: Rang– und Herkunftsstruktur der deutschen Generale und Admirale 1933–1945. H. Boldt, p. 44
  • Johnathan Trigg (2011): Hitler's Jihadis: Muslim Volunteers of the Waffen–SS. The History Press (without page number)
(furthermore, there are archival sources — of course we can't use them, but I mention them nevertheless —, namely the Sammlung Krug and correspondence from the Bundesarchiv — as per Stumpff).
Finally, Lepre's book (used in the article) claims (p. 271) that Sauberzweig committed suicide in British Civil Internment Camp No. 6 (formerly KZ Neuengamme). In contrast, I coudn't find any sources supporting Preetz. Of course, the issue is not a big deal, I was just hoping that a source for Preetz would be provided. —Jake V (talk) 18:43, 2 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
Lepre works for me. No idea where Preetz came from. Bin it. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 03:30, 3 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
