Detlef Nebbe was born on the 20th of June 1912 in Husum then part of the German Empire. In January 1933 Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany and the same month Detlef Nebbe joined the SS. Following his appointment as chancellor Hitler began laying the foundations of the Nazi state. In the first two years of his chancellorship, political parties, state governments, and cultural and professional organizations were brought in line with Nazi goals. Detlef Nebbe joined the Nazi Party in 1937 and in September 1939, after completing military training, he was drafted into the Waffen-SS, which was the military branch of the SS.
The Second World War began on 1 September 1939 when Nazi Germany invaded Poland. The German invasion of France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands started on the 10th of May 1940 and became known as the Battle of France. During the French campaign Detlef Nebbe was wounded, and on 15 October 1940 he was assigned to Auschwitz. The following month he was promoted to the rank of SS-Unterscharführer, which was equivalent to sergeant. From 1939, the SS assumed responsibility for “solving” the so-called Jewish Question which then culminated in 1941, when the leadership planned, coordinated and directed the so-called Final Solution. This “solution” was the genocide of European Jews during World War II also known as the Holocaust. SS officers were directly responsible for the management of concentration camps, where millions of Jews were murdered by poison gas.
From February 1941 Detlef Nebbe served at Auschwitz as a guard.
