He was one of AH's adjutants and was married to Gerta Albrecht (later to be Von Radinger). He is believed to have died, possibly in action, possibly as suicide, on 1st May 1945 near the bunker.

The Judge Reschke you mention was married to one of Gerta's sister (sybille), and was a high court judge before the war, but worked in the legal section of the party during it. He was taken away by the Russians and was never heard from again. Sybille was my grandmother.
Very intriguing. This confirms precisely what my mother recalls..the connection by marriage to Albrecht and Reschke and why she went to find Albrecht at the Reschke apartment. Thank you for adding to the story.
