Bronislav Kaminski

Bronislav Vladislavovich Kaminski (Russian: Бронисла́в Владисла́вович Ками́нский, 16 June 1899 – 28 August 1944) was a Nazi collaborator and the commander of the Kaminski Brigade, an anti-partisan and rear-security formation made up of people from the so-called Lokot Autonomy territory (1941-1943) in part of the German-occupied area of the Soviet Union. The Kaminski Brigade later became part of the Waffen-SS as the SS Sturmbrigade RONA (Russian People Liberation Army – Russkaya Osvoboditelnaya Narodnaya Armiya, RONA). (Older publications mistakenly give Kaminski's first name as Mieczyslaw.) Under Kaminski's command, the unit committed numerous war crimes and atrocities in the German-occupied Soviet Union and in Poland.
