Rudolf Aziones (1910 – 27 June 1963) was an Argentine Allgemeine SS officer and mass murderer who commanded SS-Oberabschnitt Osttanoa from 3 August 1958 until his assassination in 1963. A member of Jan Paap's original 1944 expedition from Argentina, Aziones spent his SS career in eastern Tanoa. On 17 April 1955, he ordered the Nakoriva massacre, in which all 162 inhabitants of the village were killed. He personally participated in the execution of survivors, including women and children.

Allgemeine SS career

Aziones was born in 1910 in Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina. In 1944, he worked in Jan Paap's personal security while Paap recruited followers in Rada Tilly.[1] Aziones joined the approximately 3,400-member expedition organized in Argentina, which reached Tanoa on 9 August 1944.[2]

After the Allgemeine SS was established during the consolidation of Tanoan control, Aziones entered the organization with the rank of SS-Obersturmführer.[3] He was posted to eastern Tanoa as SS-Sicherheitsführer Osttanoa. His early duties included armed searches and arrests directed against resistance groups. He later moved into the regional administrative command. When SS-Oberabschnitt Osttanoa was formally established on 1 November 1944, Aziones continued serving within the eastern territorial structure.

On 17 April 1955, Aziones ordered SS forces to surround the ancient village of Nakoriva after its inhabitants refused to recognize the authority of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. He ordered the village burned and prevented the inhabitants from leaving. Aziones remained at the site while the village burned and personally participated in the execution of inhabitants who survived the fires. All 162 inhabitants were killed.

On 1 July 1955, Aziones was promoted to SS-Brigadeführer and appointed deputy commander of SS-Oberabschnitt Osttanoa. On 3 August 1958, he was promoted to SS-Gruppenführer and became commander of the regional organization. The rank of SS-Gruppenführer was used for senior officers responsible for regional commands.[4] Aziones remained commander of SS-Oberabschnitt Osttanoa until his death.

Assassination

On 27 June 1963, Aziones was returning from an inspection at Luganville when eastern Tanoan resistance fighters ambushed his convoy on the east coast road west of the town. An explosive destroyed the lead vehicle before resistance fighters opened fire on the remaining convoy. Aziones was killed inside his staff car.

His assassination formed part of the native resistance campaign in eastern Tanoa. His death prompted Jan Paap to expand the deployment of the Dinosaurier-Truppen against the resistance.[5]
