  • Schutzmannschaft Battalion 118 of Ukrainische Hilfspolizei was a Schutzmannschaft battalion formed in the spring of 1942 in Kiev with former Red Army prisoners of war, and 100 men, mostly Ukrainian nationalists from Western Ukraine, who were previously incorporated into the 3rd company, 115th Schutzmannschaft battalion. The commander of the battalion was Sturmbannführer Erich Körner,[citation needed] battalion leader was Hryhorii Vasiura (tried in 1986 by the Russians). The battalion was staffed mainly with Ukrainians, although Russians, Belarusians and Armenians had also served in it. In November 1942 the battalion was transferred to Belarus, where it served until July 1944. During this time the battalion participated in the German pacification and punitive operations in that area. In 1943, dozens of policemen of the 118th battalion deserted and joined the UPA in Volyn. In the summer of 1944, the Germans transferred the battalion to France, where it joined the 115th battalion to form the 63rd Schutzmannschaft Battalion. Police officers from this branch were incorporated into the 30th SS Grenadier Division. In August, these formations deserted and joined French partisans as the 2nd Ukrainian "Taras Shevchenko" battalion of the French Forces of the Interior (). Many former members continued service in the French Foreign Legion after the war.
