List of Nazis of non-Germanic descent
List of Nazis of non-Germanic descent, including only notable people, such as Schutzstaffel members, who were of non-Germanic descent. Notably, there were several high-ranking Nazis of Jewish descent. There were also many of Slavic descent; the so-called Ruhrpolen settled in North Rhine-Westphalia in the 1870s. See Nuremberg Laws for further information on the status of non-Aryan people in [...] Germany.
Cambridge University researcher Bryan Rigg noted that there were two field marshals and fifteen generals (two full generals, eight lieutenant generals, five major generals) which were Jews or of Jewish descent. The German army personnel office in January 1944 knew of 77 "high-ranking officers of mixed Jewish race or married to a Jew" serving in the Wehrmacht. All 77 had received a declaration from [...] that they were "of German blood".
