Gieen A Baggage March Championships of the Pretektorats - SS in Olomouc on 27-28 April 1940. At the order of the SS section XXXIX, a battle for the baggage march championship was waged under the SS units of the Protectorate. Brno placed two teams with Ostuf PATZAK on the one hand and Oscha PIX on the other as the unit leader. On Sunday 6:30 we leave the old Jesuit barracks in olmitz, where all the fighting forces were accommodated.First we go to Schiessplatz and there the fight begins. We shoot quickly and well and are encouraged to go to the start of the 20 km luggage march.The last instructions are given and then it starts.Soon the slight initial nervousness has disappeared and the rest of the crew is ragged.As a rearguard, the warrior and the picturekeeper of our storm banner is still humping along, while a cyclist as a connecting post blows over the crew. It goes through a rather neglected suburb of Olomouc and sleepy Czech faces look after us. Finally we are on the country road and come to the second post already. An unknown landscape lies before us, but unscathed leads us un-er unsere Einheitsführer.Slowly the load is already noticeable.But one pushes it straight and further, always further. Sometimes airplanes hit us so deeply that we can easily recognize the observer.We sweat and glucose is administered by order.We soon managed to reach the dead point.Then comes the post, which indicates the 8 km distance, which is stopped individually within the whole march.One helps the other, some one marsohiert with two rifles on his back and we don't think of losing only one man.Posting around posts is happening.Smiling they wave to us.Our time is very good.PrettigiousThen it goes back through a village and on the village square - it's Nebotein - a flock of BDM with lemon slices and water awaits us.Thankfully we take the refreshment in the marching to ourselves. And now for small calibre shooting! Oh embarrassing, embarrassing event!We shoot more next to it than into the shit.The unit leader eats us with the eyes.The KK -- shotguns are worth nothing!!! But we don't let ourselves be undermined and with fresh strength, but also a little clouded victory prospects it goes into the last part of the track.One last slope and then we see a plentiful populated finish area in front of us.We are still 50 m and then in the Wehrkampfbahn. Hand grenades caught and then over the "Stolperhindernis", which is quite difficult for tired legs and then it goes against the 2 m wooden wall.Our second team roars and fires usDam it goes through the hideously low creep obstacle and finally through a "water ditch"without water.
