  1. In the book The Black Watch by Tom Renouf there is an account of the arrest of Sergeant Heinrich Hitzinger of the Special Armored Company and two companions, by men of the Black Watch manning a bridge across the River Weser at Bremervorde. The men aroused suspicion and on the morning of the 23rd of March the three men were transferred to the base at Barnstedt. On arrival the supposed Sergeant demanded to speak to the Base Commander. On being presented to Captain Selvester he said “Ich bein Herr Heinrich Himmler”. The prisoner’s who in addition to Himmler were a Colonel and a Major of the SS were transferred to British Intelligence at Lunebourg
