Frank, Eing.: 27. APR. 1942 PRAG, Reichs-Protektor-Amt . Dear group leader ! Since our departure from Prague n-ch Norway you did not hear anything from me, i.e. Of course, the leader Voss, who is now again in Prague, will have told you about my fate. So I have been sitting here in Bremen since the end of October 1994 and I am running the local "-section.- From you, dear group leader, I can hope that you are well-being as your wife may enjoy the best health.- How quickly the time has passed since our departure, often, no very often, we have spoken of the beautiful time in Preg and have also often and gladly taken from the nevertheless warm agreement, which between you and the 6."-Inf.Regt.best-nd, spoken.- Allow me today, that, despite my long silence in this letter, I come to you with a request, which I believe to know correctly about you. It is about my brother-in-law Hellmuth K arh a u s e n, who has been working as a government inspector since the occupation of the Protectoret at the Landratsamt in Íglau.- Without wanting to put my brother - in a special light, I think I can say that he was significantly involved in his outrageous diligence and his skills in the upsurge of the Land Council Office in Iglau . Even during my demolish presence in the Protectorate, I had the opportunity to assist me with one of his superiors and also to question him about my brother-in-law.The answer was no one else than I waited for him, namely that he was exceedingly satisfied with the performance and skills of my brother - in his brother- in-laws. It is known to me that Hellmuth Käh-usen was already given in February 1994l by the Oberlandrat in Iglau for promotion to the government inspector.At that time, however, the proposal was rejected in Preg on the grounds that my brother-in-law was still too young.- In the meantime, a year has passed since this time and therefore also the reason at that time was weakened. It is clear that the momentum and the great love for the work of a young man is strongly affected when he hears on the other side that in the last year several inspectors, who were also only 28 years old, were promoted to senior inspectors within the protectorate.- I know, group leader, that you always showed complete understanding for the concerns of a youth and I ask you, on this, however, etwes unusual way, to stand up for St. S.V8145/4
