It was
announced that the Wehrmacht, unlike the Reichswehr, would not comply with the
restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles (1919), which limited the
German armed forces to 100,000 volunteer men with no heavy artillery, thanks,
submarines or even aircraft.
The full
numeral of soldiers who served in the German Wehrmacht during its being from
1935 until 1945 is believed to style 18.2 million. This figure was put onward
by historian Rüdiger Overmans and represents the whole sum of people who ever
served in the Wehrmacht, and not the power of the Wehrmacht at any point in
time. About 2.3 million Wehrmacht soldiers were deceased; 550,000 died from
non-combat causes; 2.0 million MIA and unaccounted for after the war; and
459,000 POW deaths, of which 77,000 were in the custody of the U.S., UK, and
France; POW blank includes 266,000 in the post war period after June 1945,
mostly in Soviet captivity.
Following
the unconditional surrender of the Wehrmacht which took place on 8 May 1945,
some Wehrmacht units remained active, both independently (e.g. in Norway), or
under Allied command as law enforcement. By the end of August 1945, these units
had been dissolved, and a year following on 20 August 1946, the Allied Control Council
dissolved the Wehrmacht as authoritatively abolished (Kontrollratsgesetz No.
34). While Germany was forbidden to have an army, Allied forces took advantage
of the skill of Wehrmacht members like Reinhard Gehlen.
The German
Wehrmacht was divided in three official branches (All of the branches have
great militaria): Heer (the army), Kriegsmarine(the navy) and the Luftwaffe
(air force). The Waffen SS can be considered, de facto, a fourth branch of the
Wehrmacht.
