Copy cman Pilsen, 27.3.43. of the city of Pilsen Personal! Lt-General H e r m a n n Betr.: Oberlandrat Dr.E. Reference: long distance conversation with Maj-Gen. Z i e r v o g e l . To the Wehrmacht authorised representative at the Reichsprotector and commander in the Bohemian and Moravian Wehrkreis Herrn Lutnant T o u s s s a n t Prague. On his first visit to Pilsen Dr. E. In the course of the conversation as the basis of the policy to be pursued in the Protectorate in his opinion, the Divide et impera. With reference to any event that was to take place on the same or one of the next days, and to which, as a common meeting place, the circuit leadership had been arranged, from where we wanted to go together to this event, Dr.E. for example: "Mr General, always go to the circuit leader on such occasions and pick him up? Why doesn't he come to you, you are much older? "I replied to him, for example: "We do not take care of such prestige issues here in Pilsen with each other with the Elle and no stone breaks out of my crown, if I sometimes go to the circuit leader to pick him up." A few weeks later, the circuit director told me, after a long discussion, worryingly that something that he had to talk to me about from the heart was oppressing him. On my question, what was this about, he told me that Oberlandrat Dr.E. had asked him after a public celebration (I think it was a great phantom consecration of the NSKK) why he always adhered to the general, after all, these were all party matters that did not concern the general.
