Hello DB.

SS Veterinarians were assigned to many of the early SS-VT and Waffen-SS units to tend to HORSES because even though the Waffen-SS prided itself on being motorized, it still had a lot of horse-powered vehicles in the beginning. And of course there were the SS-Cavalry-Standarten during the days of the Allgemeine-SS. Both Hermann and his brother Waldamar Fegelein were in these units and helped put together the SS-Cavalry-Division, which over the years transitioned into the Florian Geyer, as well as the 22nd and 37th Kavallerie Divisions. So there were SS Veterinarians. I suspect that they might have been used on occasion to assist the medical staffs for people when taking heavy casualties. And of course they would take care of the puppies!
