Let \(G\) be a finite \(p\)-group and let \(k\) be a field of characteristic \(p\). Denote by \(V\) the group of units of \(kG\) of augmentation 1 and by \(V_*\) the subgroup of those units whose inverse is given by the standard involution \(g\mapsto g^{-1}\) for \(g\in G\). The authors prove that \(G\) does not have a normal complement in \(V_*\) for \(p=2\) and \(G\) being dihedral or semidihedral of order at least 32. They compute an explicit complement for the dihedral groups of order 8 and 16 as well as the semidihedral group of order 16. The proof is done by explicit calculations by hand and by GAP.
