Stiener held an odd position in the German military. Like many others, he was NOT a member of the Nazi party. We know now that he worked as a subversive to combat the party from within. He was known to utilize his form of Matgick to counter that of the Third Reich. Their Black Order was created by Heinrich Himmler.3 Witness accounts and photographs indicate that he bore The Division insignia on his uniform instead of the standard issue for rank and classification. The standard for an officer's coat, which was manufactured in black, had a different collar insignia. 4
Stiener was reported to have been a member of the Theosophical Society.
He was declared MIA in 1943.
