29 copy. Excerpt from W e s u n g e n No. 20. No. 4008/39 go. Abt. Ia 1 v. 5.12.39 Geh e m ! 13.) Use of the German language. According to the police, in Pilsen the German population complains that often Wehrmacht members from abroad (probably from the Sudeten area) speak only Czech when entering shops, restaurants, etc. It goes without saying that the German soldier speaks German and exploits his Czech language skills only if it is necessary for the service. I ask the gentlemen commanders and site- oldest also in this respect to have the behavior of the Wehrmacht members checked. (I c Az. 1 v. 30.ll. 39.) 8eYea
