Feldgendarmerie
Between 1939 and 1941, there was a growing need for troops to maintain control over those areas recently conquered by the Wehrmacht. Some units of the Ordnungspolizei were integrated into the army’s Feldgendarmerie units. The Ordnungspolizei had the right to draft men, and by the summer of 1940 almost 250,000 men served these units.
