English Translation

RF V6 I am obediently asking to take a position on the oath of the Reichsffvom l6.4.194o: 1. The fact that I should include the Gattindes Wl group leader Frank in the clan community of the l, I experienced about lo days before the wedding by the leader of the section XXxIx. I immediately raised my concerns to this and pointed out that, according to the guidelines of the Reichsführer, the officers, i.e. in this palle the Reich leaders themselves or j-Obergruppenführers Heissmeyer, would have to make the admission into the clan community. M-Oberführer Opländer told me that I would like to get in touch with the personal speaker of the group leader, -SturmbannführER Gies. I called him the same day, brought my concerns back to him and asked him to call in Berlin for this. Gies explained to me that the group leader would speak to the Reichsführer personally; I understood from others that during the war it would probably not be possible to ask the Reich leader or ObergruppenführER Heissmeyer to come to Prague for the wedding, but another suitable leader would not exist in Prague. 2. From the end of the celebration itself, I was not aware of anything from his meeting with the Reicheführer until the Reekkehr of the group leader. I also had no reason to inquire about it before the Reichsführers had decided in principle on the implementation of the admission into the family community. I had only heard that the admission to the Community of the Sippen was carried out in cooperation with the civil trust and, after a speech by the mayoral representative Prof. Pfitzner, the admission into the Community with a very lurzen speech.
