At the end of 1941 the destruction of Lithuanian Jewry was effectively accomplished by Hamann's unit in the countryside, by the Ypatingasis būrys in the Ponary massacre, and by the Tautinio Darbo Apsaugos Batalionas (TDA) in the Ninth Fort in Kaunas.
[5] The unit had no permanent structure and was called for ad hoc missions in various towns in Lithuania.
[6] The Jäger Report documents mass executions carried out by the unit in 54 locations across Lithuania.
[8] Jews selected for executions were marched to the location, usually about 4–5 kilometres (2.5–3.1 mi) away from where they lived,[9] and shot.
[8][10] The corpses would be disposed of in pits dug in advance and the loot (clothes and other property of those killed) would be divided among the perpetrators.
