テオドール・アイケ
Behind the Army came SS "Einsatzgruppen" (task forces) commanded by Theodor Eicke, who began systematically executing Jews and members of the Polish educated classes. One "Einsatzgruppe" commanded by Udo von Woyrsch operated in 14th Army's area. At Dynów Woyrsch's men herded the town's Jews into the synagogue then burned it down. By 20 September, over 500 Jews had been killed. In 1939, this was still too much for most German Army officers to stand. After complaints from numerous officers, Rundstedt banned Woyrsch's units from the area, but after his departure his order was rescinded. On 20 October Rundstedt resigned his command and was transferred to the western front.
