The SS are considered to be the organization most responsible for carrying out the [[genocide|genocidal]] mass murder of millions of Jews and other Nazi "undesirables" during [[The Holocaust|the Holocaust]]; it is estimated that the SS were responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews.

The SS was comprised of several different branches. The three main branches were the ''Allgemeine SS'', which served as general law enforcement and security, the ''Waffen-SS'', which served as the primary armed force, often acting in concert with regular German military forces, and the ''SS-Totenkopfverbände'', which was in charge of the various [[Concentration Camp|concentration camps]] established in Nazi territories. Other subdivisions included the [[Gestapo]] (which functioned as the [[secret police]] of Nazi Germany) and the ''[[Einsatzgruppen]]'', which were [[death squad]]s that eliminated civilians in Nazi-conquered territories.

Members of all of its branches committed numerous [[war crimes]] and [[crimes against humanity]] during [[World War II]]. The SS was also involved in commercial enterprises and exploited concentration camp inmates as slave labor. After Nazi Germany's defeat, the SS and the NSDAP were judged by the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg to be criminal organizations. [[Ernst Kaltenbrunner]], the highest-ranking surviving SS main department chief, was found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials and hanged in 1946.
