Oberst Cassius Freiherr von Montigny (1890-1940)

Hi ,

some data list him as being Commander Infanterie-Regiment 31 and 102 but that seems to be wrong. I have a note that he was “Stabsoffizier in einem Infanterie-Regiment” and “Bataillonskommandeur”. Who has some exact data of his positions between 01.10.1934 and him leaving the Wehrmacht 30.04.1937?.

When did he become Hauptmann der Schutzpolizei?.

Thanks in advance.

HM.

HM,

he is shown in the 1935 "Stellenbesetzung" as an Obertstleutnant 1.7.34 (31a) on the staff of Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 31.

I do not have his date of appointment to the rank of Polizei-Hauptmann but his RDA given in the 1926 "Dienstaltersliste der Polizei-Offiziere der Schutzpolizei in Preußen" is 28.10.08

Regards
Glenn

This from the "Crewbook" of the Class of 1909. It gives an abbreviated career summary of the Baron. I believed Phil erred in his assumptions that SS-Oberführer Frhr. v. Montigny ever commanded either IR 31 or IR 102.

Thanks all.

Anyone else any ideas about his promotion to Hauptmann der Schutzpolizei?. On 01.12.1926 he became Major der Schutzpolizei.

Any other decorations then the following:
Eisernes Kreuz I. Klasse, Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse, U-Boot-Abzeichen, Ehrendegen des RFSS, Ehrenkreuz für Frontkämpfer.

HM.
