Konrad Morgen SS-TV assignment

#1

Post by Derek » 30 Mar 2020, 18:45

In Konrad Morgen: The Conscience of a Nazi Judge by H. Pauer-Studer and J. Velleman the following portriat is used. Although I may have missed it, in the book and after searching the forum I can find no reference to this assignment. Can anyone shed any light on the specifics of his service in the SS-TV?
Thanks as always.

Maybe it's his service as an SS judge. He tracked scandals in the Dachau or Auschwitz camps, theft of "Reich property" or jewelry or other valuables after those murdered in warehouses. The Third Reich recognized them as their property. Similarly, the affair with property from the Treblinka extermination camps, Sobibór. In Gdansk (then Danzig), in the SS Mackau prison camp (now the Gdansk-Mackowy district) sat an SS non-commissioned officer from Oświęcim, convicted by this judge for stealing property from victims of the Holocaust from the "Canada" warehouses in the Auschwitz camp.

Thank you Ponury for your reply but the insignia is most likely pre-war and Morgen's role as a judge didn't start until after 1940.
