I see that remnants of the Florian Geyer (c.50 men?) were the troops guarding Goering at the time of his capture:
Capture of Goering

They're also cited here:
Pope Pius XII: Architect for Peace - Google Book Search
in a rather odd sounding plan to assasinate the pope... Quite why they'd be chosen for this I've no idea and the evidence listed does sound somewhat flimsy.
