(16,799 posts)The Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) was considered the sister service of the Sicherheitsdienst (Security Service), both were administered by the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA) (Reich Main Security Office).
But all were a part of the SS, and under the command of Heinrich Himmler, Reichsführer-SS!
ICE = Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo)
DHS=Sicherheitsdienst(SD) (Security Service) and
