>this retarded fucking meme

First off, the photos on the right all started out on Stormfront, I have never seen them on any scholarly website on WW2 or the Holocaust.

Second, the man in the right photograph absolutely is fucking German.

>muh M24

Nazi Germany invaded the Balkans months to invading the USSR. Because of a shortage of equipment, they often armed rear echelon units with captured weapons, including the Yugoslav M24, which itself is a licensed copy of the Gewehr 98, a weapon that was still in service with German military up to the end of WW2 and was the basis of the Kar98k. This sometimes was even applied with frontline units. Plenty of photos from the 1940 Blitzkrieg campaigns show frontline Wehrmacht and SS troops using Czech equipment, including tanks, seized during the occupation of the Sudetenland in 1938.

>muh SS

First off, get this through your fucking head. The Einatzgruppen ARE NOT a branch of the Waffen-SS. They are a subdivision of the Sicherheitsdienst (SS-SD), the Third Reich intelligence service, which was under SS control.

Because of this, Einatzgruppen units would never have been issued the camouflage smocks the Waffen-SS used. Not that it would matter much, the Waffen-SS only used camouflage smocks in limited numbers anyway. The overwhelming majority of SS personnel in WW2 wore standard grey and the garrison cap.

TL;DR It is perfectly feasible for a rear-echelon SS soldier to have been using a captured Yugoslav 24/Gewehr 98 and wearing Feldgrau and a garrision cap in Ukraine in 1942.

pic related, German soldier wearing a garrision cap using a captured Russian SVT-40.

Now fuck off back to /pol/ you dumb Hun-loving nigger.

It's posted unironically on /pol/ all the time and I'm fucking sick of having to correct people on this.

All these fucking brownshirt wannabes claim to know everything about the Third Reich and how great of a place it was and they don't even fucking know the basic command structure of the SS or that the Germans had to use captured weapons because they suffered a perpetual shortage of equipment or found their own to be severely deficient in the harsh Russian climate.

Seriously, the Germans pressed so many captured T-34s into service, they wound up giving them their very own special combat designation, the Panzerkampfwagen T-34 747(r).

And it's not like the Germans were the only ones doing this. Plenty of photos of Russian and American soldiers using everything from MP40s to 88mm guns.

More likely the rifle is a Czech Vz.24. The rifle has a wide sling on it, and the Yugo M24 uses a rather narrow sling. Germany got basically all of Czechoslovakia's service rifles when they annexed the country. The man in the picture also wears the distinctive tunic of the Schutzpolizei, with dark cuffs w/buttons on the sleeves and closely-spaced buttons on the front.
