Mennonites, German Occupation, and the Elimination of Jews in Ukraine
No full textThis paper seeks to identify and map out the social interactions between Nazi Germany, Mennonites in southern Ukraine, and local Jewish populations during the Holocaust by examining experiences and relationships in two of the region’s larger Mennonite settlement areas, Molotschna/Halbstadt and Chortitza. The paper also examines the content and impact of Nazi propaganda in ethnic German communities as well the pressure to officially change “Jewish-sounding” names to Germanic names in later applications for naturalization. This mapping of interactions aims to contribute to a fuller understanding of the complexities of twentieth-century Mennonite history in Ukraine under Nazi occupation and open a door towards a healing of memories. The focus on one small ethnic-religious group in its interactions with Nazi Germany during the time its Jewish neighbors are eliminated is a small contribution towards understanding how social relations shaped the evolution of the Holocaust.9-40For AODA Accommodation, including help with reading this content, please contact [email protected]

Ethnic German Cavalry Regiment ‘Halbstadt’: A Mennonite Story
No full textIn 1942 some 500 to 675 Mennonite young men from the historic Mennonite settlement of Molochna (renamed “Halbstadt District”) became members of the Ethnic German Cavalry Unit, which by April 1943 was absorbed into the SS (Schutzstaffel). The first section of this paper will introduce and offer background on the arrival of German forces in Ukraine in 1941. A second section traces the key steps in the cavalry’s creation, its establishment in the larger Halbstadt District, and its deployments, based on archival materials and military records. A third section documents the SS curriculum and pedagogy for ethnic German cavalry members in Ukraine, not only in ridership and combat skills, but also a catechesis and spiritual mentorship into the SS worldview. The scope of this paper will be the occupation period from the fall of 1941 to the evacuation of the ethnic German population from the Black Sea region in September 1943 and the regiment’s dismantling by April 1944.154-191For AODA Accommodation, including help with reading this content, please contact [email protected]
