Problem is, I cannot find the bielo-russian / georgians casualties while fighting on the german side, but it was massive but not really fit on the official history.

(no punt intended, just history)

Sorry for that link I provided. For some reason babelfish translate only 1/3 of document.
About German casualties: Eastern Front (22.6.1941-9.5.1945)
Total: 7181.1 thousands
|-Dead: 3604.8
|-Was taken prisoner: 3576.3
+ 1 591 125 taken prisoner after 9.5.1941 so total casualties = 8772,2 thousands.

Searching for information about national legions

Aha. 25000 Georgians - part of Turkic Legion.
70000 Byelorussians - most of them (47000) served as "Hilfswillige" (voluntary assistant) in occupied territories.
Where was no massive deaths amongst them, most part of all legioners gave up.
