General der Polizei

#1

Post by Amartus » 25 Mar 2011, 11:37

Hi there

I previously asked this question on the the excellent alternatehistory forums, but no one was 100% sure of the answer.
I am a bit confused. Were there Generale der Polizei before the Nazis, or was this rank only created / developed after Hitler came to power?
Any answers or guidance on this would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,
Amartus

There were police ranks before Hitler took over and they were normally shown as Polizeigeneral etc
