Notable members of the corps included Vice Admiral Martin Baltzer and Gerhard Wagner, the later Obergruppenführer SA and the Reich Medical Leader. Franz von Stephani himself was later appointed to the rank of Gruppenführer SA.


In May, the Potsdam Volunteer Corps merged with Hülsen's Volunteer Corps in the 3rd Brigade of the Reich Armed Forces.
