 With the formation of the Central Office of the State Justice Administrations for the Investigation of National Socialist Crimes, this changed after historical research by the organisation regarding "Einsatzgruppen" of the "Sicherheitsdienst" or concentration camp personnel revealed that no known case could be cited where refusing an order did indeed result in severe punishment.More commonly, military personnel refusing such an order were transferred to a different unit.An example for this was Wehrmacht Captain Otto Freyer, who was transferred towards the end of the war to the Neuengamme concentration camp.
