To qualify this again.
Required of every SS man regardless of where they came from:
"The Oath of the SS Man :
"I swear to you, Adolf Hitler, as Fuehrer and Reichschancellor, loyalty and bravery. I vow to you, and to those you have named to command me, obedience unto death, so help me God."
While that doesn't mean they were card carrying members of the Nazi party, swearing an oath the the leader of and symbol of the Nazi party amounts to the same thing.
Indoctrination was the same. It was the political army of Adolf Hitler, with their loyalty to him.
Lots of the SS guys would have you believe it was all a big misunderstanding. The SS was what it was. They were not just the common soldiers of Germany during WW2.
