Hi,

Who could explain to me why on earth you have a such difference in ranks for the same position???

Isn't there any mistake?

Willab
I would, suggest that the difference reflects the importance of the post which decreased somewhat from 1940 as the number of camps increased. Can I ask about Norbert Scharf was he Kdt temporary 4.7.34 - 19.10.34 probably deputising for Eicke

KL Salaspils> Heinrich Himmler 1943 considered for a short time to change to the concentration camp really and to put in charge of it to RSH, but it did not come to that.

Much greetings...

Long time no see....

I had to wake this old thread of mine when I read something that cought my memory regarding if or if not
Alexander Reiner served as Kdt of the KL Dachau.

I now know why different sources say either way. It was very simple, in the book "Das war Dachau" by Stanislav Zámecnik
you can read on page 84 in the middle of the page (in german) " Am 6 Dezember 1934 ernannte Himmler den SS-Oberführer Dr Alexander Reiner zum Dachauer Kommandanten, einer Zahnarzt, der aus seiner Stellung als Führer des 26. Abschnittes der SS in Danzig abberufen wurde. Reiner trat jedoch sein neues Amt im Dachau überhaupt nicht an. Er nahm zunächst Urlaub, und in dieser Zeit wurde er wegen ungebürglichen Verhaltens an seiner früheren Wirkungsstätte in Danzig seines Amtes enthoben."

So to end I can say that Reiner was only Kdt on the paper, and never acually commanded the Camp.

Best regards,

Georg

What about Richard Thomalla? Was he appointed as a commander of Sobibor before SS-Hauptsturmführer Franz Stangl as well as in Treblinka before SS-Obersturmführer Irmfried Eberl?
