Allgemeine SS
The mustering formations of part-time SS members, considered before 1938 to be the core of the "Allgemeine SS", were maintained in their own order of battle, beginning with regiment sized "Standarten" units and extending upwards to division strength "Oberabschnitte" commands. Within the "Allgemeine SS" "Standarten" there were in turn subordinate battalions of "Sturmbann" themselves divided into company "Sturme".
