SS-Groupführer 13/17047 State Secretary K.H.F r a n k z.H Herrn Ob.Regrat Dr.Giess 24 in P r a g , Czerninpalais. Betr.:Meine Uk-Station. Ihr Z.:St.S.XII G - 53 d/41. Dear Mr. Obergovernungsrat! I thank you very much for your letter of 27.v.M. and I would like to tell you the following: It could be that my Uk position encounters difficulties and therefore, because for the field army - to which also my unit belongs - Uk-Sperre looks.It should initially be lifted with 3o.Sept., but recently extended until 31.12,l.J. If there are difficulties,then I recommend that in my unit - i.e.:"Service 47.o35 A" - I submit an application for transfer to the replacement troop part "in order to enable a later Uk position".This request should be justified in the same way as the Uk application itself.I was assured by my Batl. that such a request will be made at a favourable rate. Uk position light and fast. The events in the protectorate I follow,Goweit the sparse news penetrate to us,with the utmost sympathy.I suppose that these incidents might also speed up my business.I would welcome this, because I am eager to be deployed in this fight - I think I could do more than at the moment in my company, however intresant our work sometimes is. I ask the Secretary of State to give my best regards and I commend you, Your High Government Councillor,with Hy Heil Hitler! Your very devoted (my, S -5341)
