the SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer

hi guys

am new to the forum and am glad toorward to have joined and look forward to seeing topics that come up on here. so, my first question for you all.....

i have been doin alot of research into the SS and have compiled a lot of information, but the rank of SS Oberstgruppenfuhrer is one that i am particularly interested in. in doing research i have come across some opinions and also a phtograph of a document which shows that Karl Wolff was promoted to SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer. a document was signed by him stating that he had attained such rank also. similarly have also heard and read people stating tht Hans-Adolf Prützmann was promoted to SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer.

both were HöSSPF's of Italien and Ukraine respectively, but is there any proof in such views?

regards

sam
