98 Mational Socialist Germans in Bühmen und mähren. J0TO30 Gauleitung Niederdonau Eing.: 19.MRZ.1940 Tgb. Nr.: 903 The Special Representative Mr. State Secretary of the Gauleiter SS. Group leader K.H. F ra n k Prag IV Czerninpalais. Schr./La. 16. March 40. Our Zeihen: Your sign: Brno, .19. 3706-3. Rennergasse 18/1, telex 14-5-74 Subject: Sale of honour crosses for front fighters. As Gauamtleiter Kubelke informed me, you need the documents for the sale by the Reichskriegerbund Ehrenkreuze without the buyer being in possession of the loan certificate. This fact has been confirmed to me by the German Reichs Kriegerbund itself. In the report requested by me it literally says: "... Many of the people of the Protectorate, who have their residence here today, but who lived in the Sudetengau on October 1 938, are the owners of the relevant ID card for the cross of the front fighter and are also entitled to carry it. All other Reichskrieger, who ordered the medals with us and were also delivered, were made aware that the wearing is only allowed after receipt of the relevant ID." Heil Hitler! 19 Wm by Schroeter .a.d Gauamtleiter. L79/9.40 $\rBG
