MAL1940 Tgb. n. 4848 To the personal speakers of the State Secretary at the Reichsprotektor in Böhmen and Moravia 1 4h-Sturmbannführer Dr. G i e s Prag Betr.: National Socialist Air Corps in the Protectorate. - Establishment of a separate group for the Sudetenland including the Protectorates. - Introduction: There. Note: 2 and 5 original. The assessments of NsFK Obersturmbann- führer D i t r i c h and NSFK Hauptsturmführer P r i m a - v e s i are submitted with the request for information. The NSFK in the Protectorate has a total of about 800 members. Depending on their location, the individual storms belong to the NSFC groups adjacent to the protectorate. Thus, Prague is assigned to Group VII, Pilsen to Group XIII, Moravian Ostrava to Group VI and Brno, Iglau, Znaim and Budweis to NSFFK Group XIV. To what extent purely numerically the conditions for the establishment of a new NsFK-group Sudetenland/Protectorate exist, cannot be assessed from here, since the strength of the NSFK in Sudettenland is not known here. Although a summary of all the NSFK storms in the Sudetengau and Protectorate in a separate group would be part of the aviation training, it would be worth considering to postpone this plan during the duration of the war, especially since a relatively high percentage of all NSFC men have joined the military service. brfu *f Dberftumbannfühl
