Introduction: There.Note St.S. IV D - 120/42 of 7.4.42. Attachment: 1. There is nothing politically disadvantageous about Brada. He was formerly supposed to be a partisan of the clerical People's Party, but never exposed himself. In the service he is described as very correct and strict, which made him very unloved with his subordinates. On the other hand, however, he should not have had the necessary momentum on leadership issues and was inclined to leave the initiative to his subordinates. This is once again claimed by his activity in the air raid, as by his responsible management of the weekly training_fir the protectorate police, in which only regulations and the like are treated, instead of that the policemen were familiarized with the National Socialist worldview and the contemporary events. As a significant example of this, it was cited that he reported himself sick before the 28.X.l94l, because he probably wanted to avoid all eventualities, such as possible unrest, then was on duty on that day, but left the police force to his deputy. i.V. i-Sturmbannführer.
