ホルスト・ヴェッセル
Examples of German military units adopting the name of this Nazi-era "martyr" in World War II include the 18th SS Volunteer Panzergrenadier Division, known as the "Horst Wessel" Division, and the Luftwaffe's 26th Destroyer (or heavy fighter) Wing "Zerstörergeschwader 26", as well as its successor day fighter unit "Jagdgeschwader 6", which was similarly named the "Horst Wessel" wing. The Jagdgeschwader 134, formed in 1936, and Jagdgeschwader 142 were also named after Wessel. In 1938, the Nazi Party's Central Publishing House, the Franz Eher Nachfolger Verlag in Munich, published "Jagdgeschwader Horst Wessel" ("Horst Wessel Fighter Squadron") by "Obersturmbannführer" Hans Peter Hermel to commemorate the presentation of the squadron to Hitler.
