    I/FJR3 Unit Manual Version 1.0 1. Fallschirm Division Fallschirmjäger Regiment 3 Lehrbataillon 3 Kompanie Unit Manual I/FJR3 Unit Manual Version 2.0 2 Welcome to Fallschirmjäger Regiment 3! Willkommen! This Unit Manual has been designed to give you a mid-level view of FJR3, with historical background and all the information you need for starting re-enactment as a Fallschirmjäger. For a deeper view or for any questions you might have, just ask the German CO, your Unit CO, or your Fallschirmkameraden. Raison d’être The purpose of our Unit is to re-enact the experience of the Luftwaffe Paratrooper as it occurred during the Second World War. We do this through first-person interpretation at living history events, public battles, and tactical battles within the operational parameters of the Historical Re- enactment Society. Our aim is to entertain and educate, whilst we ourselves learn more about the recent past. We portray a unit from 3 Kompanie I Battalion (Lehrbatallion) Fallschirmjäger (Parachute) Regiment 3 (I/FJR3). Fallschirmjäger is usually translated as ‘Hunter from the Sky’. We chose to portray FJR3 as this Regiment fought against 2nd NZ Division on Crete, in Africa, and finally in Italy. FJR3 is absolutely NOT about politics, nor will we tolerate any individuals who wish to spread extremist views of any kind. Such persons will not be welcome in our Unit. Our members are students of history, and although we portray German Soldiers we are NOT Nazis. We wear the hakenkreutz (swastika) only because it was used throughout the Third Reich period (1933-1945) as a national symbol.

During his service, he was credited with 65 (some sources claim 75) days of close quarter combat. In the beginning of 1943, Degrelle created the Burgundy Cross to be issued in four classes (bronze, silver, gold and gold with diamonds) to those members of the Rexist Party who served on the front with the Nazi forces. Based on the Rex Cross, it was approved as an official Figure 7: Iron Cross, 2nd Class.

Although he was convicted of treason in absentia by a Belgian military court and sentenced to death by firing squad, the sympathetic Franco government in Spain afforded him protection. When threatened with invasion by the Allies over the return of Degrelle, Franco appeased the Allies by turning over other war criminals such as Pierre Laval, the Vichy French Premier, but not Degrelle.
