24 Erich R a s n e r Völklingen/Saar, the 14.1.44th Wilhelmstr. 27 To SS-Standartenführer Robert G ie s, .P.a.g. Cerninský Palác Op' Lieber R o b e r t ! 2 On the month shortly after 8 o'clock we arrived three punctually and well kept in Saarbrücken. We had a very good return trip. Also in Stuttgart we could occupy an empty compartment. Jch would therefore like to thank you once again for the friendly reception. Also thanks for the procurement of the special compartment. Gradually they got used to the service again. ) During our meeting on Wednesday evening I had also addressed the question of a change after there. Jch would have a lot of Jnteresse about it, because my family doesn't get the humid climate here. In addition, our Abw. - a Major a.D. - who is a fabled person and comrade wants to change. He told me today that he won't stay any longer under the current circumstances. And so I have little Jnterse. Major a,D. Karl Förger was formerly director of a large Stin and Basaltwerk in the area of Aussig. He was expelled from the Czechs overnight without anything and then came to the head of the education system and led a school there at last After the dissolution in 1934 he was expelled by the army.
