33 OF THE PROTECTOR IN B5Hmen & Moravia 24 April 1941. St.S.IV J 5/41 I. denoberlan drat in Prag ME z.Hd. des Herrn Oberlandrats von W a t e r -O.V.I.A.- in P18g Betr.: Use of the sanatorium in Prague-Podol as a reserve hospital of the Waffen-SS 1 plant. (Abschr.d.Verg.Heeresverw.i.b.M.) The Waffen SS in Prague currently uses as reserve hospital a part of the General Hospital in Prague on Karlsplatz. These premises are by no means sufficient to meet the needs of the past; it must also be expected that in the near future wounded members of the Arms S from the Balkan war scene in Prague will be brought to the fore. Allle I have therefore decided to obtain a more suitable accommodation for the reserve hospital of the Vaf fen-SS and, as such, the sanatorium in Prague-Podol No.4 was envisaged. I hereby commission you to use the aforementioned sanatorium as a reserve hospital of the Waffen-SS in your capacity as a place of need in the Simne of §§ 5.6 of the Reichsleistungsgesetz as amended by 1 September 1939 (RGBl.I p.1645) in conjunction with the 4th announcement of places of need outside the Wehrmacht of 30 August 1938 (R GBl.1 p.1541) without delay.
