Hi Phil

Just a question on Walter Turza.
Further to the above Walter Turza Joined the Party Sept 1926. He was dismissed from the SS and the Party 9 November 1932. Re-admitted September 1937
Philmil


If he was re-admitted September 1937, at what rank was this? I have him as SS-Standartenführer his old rank on 01.09.1939. Is September 1937, just a typo?

Regards
Brian

Hi Phil
Thanks for the info on Turza great stuff as usual.

I don't know how this became a new topic as I posted a reply in the topic "Gold Party Badge awards" at http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=37101 which appears below. It was an old topic from 2003, which is where my quote came from and Turza's dissmissal and re-instatment was discussed. I found it doing a search for Turza in our SS & Polizei forum.

Anyway thanks again.

Regards.
Brian

He was dismissed November 1932 for making political threats against Himmler and the SS Leadership
