English Translation
N/ copy! Wehrmacht authorized Prague, October 1943. at the Reichsprotektor and commander in the Wehrkreis Böhmen and Moravia Chief of the General Staff Dear Mr Oberlandrat! On your letter of 20.9.1943, I inform you that the commander could also determine the abuses mentioned by you in the grievance between the Wehrmacht and the uniformed divisions of the party. He had stated that a general order on the duty of the party and on the discipline of the street included the following information: "The observance of the duty to the party between the Wehrmacht and the armed forces as well as the uniformed members of the parties also gave rise to justified complaints. Waffen-il and party fight side by side with the German Wehrmacht on the outer and inner fronts. The close connection through the common battle goal must be inviolable in the outsider area of the Protectorate and find its visible expression by the joyfully and correctly fulfilled mutual duty to express it." I believe that this was fully in line with the wish of the Minister of State and I ask him to inform it occasionally. Heil Hitler! Ihr gez. Ziervogel. Der Oberlandrat Prag, den 6.Oktober 1943.
