English Translation

as purely private letters are valid, so also the letter head "concentration camps etc." comes into effect. Dss pattern is also attached in the annex. A close-up for the notification of the relatives within the meaning of the above regulation exists only for destroyed Red Spain fighters, as far as this is not Reichsdeutsche. In these cases it is not the office of instruction, but the Reichsssicherheitsheuptamt, Unit IV A 2, to be notified of the camp, which then, if necessary, causes the family members to be informed. In general, I would like to point out that the notification of relatives who have their residence abroad has only to be carried out through the consular representations of the Reich.* Special arrangement for detainees_of_stage_IIl: As far as the prisoners of stage III of the concentration camp autheusen are concerned, the notification to the members of the camp must also be made via the instruction office, however, in such a way that the corresponding one is informed of the death of the detainee and of the cremation of the corpse which has already taken place. The prisons of stages I and II sitting in the concentration camp .euthausen are not covered by this special arrangement. The place of admission, i.e. the place for which the prisoner is directly resident, is obliged to arrange for the notification of the relatives at the meeting of the Nechricht without delay, and this must be communicated orally to the relatives by means of a local office. As a matter of principle, the courtesans are not to be appointed to the department, but the official or officer must personally visit the courtiers and transmit the death cases in a humanly sensitive manner and advise them on the notification of the camp commander if they wish to inspect the body. As far as the members do not live at the place of the admission office and with the notification other bodies, such as district police, local police, mayor or gendarmerie officer.
