Last Battalion

The Letztes Bataillon, translated in English from GErman as the "Last Battallion" is a battallion of 1,000 Waffen-SS soldier that were turned into vampires after volunteering in the Nazi vampire production project to create a vampire army.

History


After the event of Hellsing: The Dawn, most of the remaining Nazi officials escaped to South America some time after the end of the war in Europe, taking with them a battalion of 1,000 Waffen-SS volunteers. They eventually formed the "Letztes Bataillon" a secret weapon that would be used in a future conflict.

In 1999, during the events of Hellsing, they are shown to be more loyal to The Major instead of the more high rank Nazi officers. During the Major's return to Millennium's secret base in Jaburo, the Colonel became furious with the Major and started to beat him up, they eventually turn againts their own superiors and killed them all. As the Major declares war againts Hellsing and Iscariot, Millennium prepares for an invasion to London. Once they arrived in the skies of London, they launched several V-1 flying bombs, destroying many parts of the city as Millennium soldiers descended from the zeppelins, massacring everyone at sight with the British police no match againts them as bullets have no effect on vampires. However their forces were quickly depleted by both Hellsing and Iscariot forces in a fierce clash, losing half of their manpower with only 572 troops remaining. most of them were wiped out by Alucard and his undead army, along with Iscariot knights.

Equipment
Millennium soldiers are overall, equipped with World War 2-era German weapons including Kar98 bolt-action rifles, MP40s, STG-44s, Stick grenades, Panzerfausts and Panzerschreks. Stahnhelm helmets are apparently still in use along with long trenchcoats and a face cloth.
