In 1936 the Police of Nazi Germany was organised under SS, the Nazi Party's elite units lead by Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler. At the break of war in September 1939, large parts of the police forces mobilized as Kazernierte Polizei, militarized "Barracked Police". After the the German invasion of Norway on April 9th, 1940, several police regiments were deployed to Norway. Some of them came from the notorious Einsatz-Kommandos on the Eastern Front, where they had committed exstensive war crimes. In Trondheim, the German police formed the 1st Battalion of the SS-Polizei-regiment 7.
