English Translation

B1.2. here, too, cannot impose the reticence expressly demanded by the RFy, which demands that our blood be purified. Experience also teaches that the use of officers in the Protectorate is also highly inconvenient, who cannot go with money and are therefore constantly in a distressed financial situation and are in debt.- Since it will not be possible in the foreseeable future to keep the batl. completely closed together, the supervision of the service by the Batl. commander is very difficult. It is therefore possible to use only such staff officers with success as commanders who are energetic enough to be able to penetrate sharply, but never those who are inhibited even by defects of the above-mentioned kind, or by nature too soft to prevail over a larger number of young officers. It is good that those officers who are to be employed later in the regular replacement cycle in the Protectorate should be put into knowledge in good time enough of this so that they can become aware of themselves internally and also in the future.
