h/ 10 July 194l. Ct. S. VI B-18/41 -Gruf. St.S.269/41. 1. Reichsführer- und Chef der Deutschen Polizei, Berlin SW 11, Prince Albrechtstresse 8. Reichsführer! In today's issue of the "New Day" I read the closed note. According to the version of this note, it comes from the Vehruacht. The tendency that speaks from the note is clear. My meadow the Führer has taken an exception for both the order police as well as for the security police and the SD. I would be grateful if the matter were taken up by you and made clear that the police, the security police and the SD have the right to carry on their present uniform until the end of the war. I ask for a regulation for myself that I be authorized to wear the field-grey uniform as a higher and police leader.
