Re: Number Of Wehrmacht Generals
Thanks gentleman for the kind answers!
How about the honorary ranks, is it also included in the list in Rangliste? The men like Todt, Ribbentrop, Speer, etc? I have checked on www.unithistories.com about Heer generals, but Epp (Franz Ritter) is not there! Is he also held the honorary rank of Generaloberst?

Ribbentrop was Allgemeine SS (not Waffen-SS)
Speer wasn' t a soldier!
.... and Ritter von Epp had the Charakter als General der Infanterie since 25.07.1935 (never Generaloberst)

Re: Number Of Wehrmacht Generals
Thank you Oberstab. I have seen picture of Todt with SS uniform, so he was also have honorary rank is the SS, right? About Speer, I have readt that Himmler offered him the SS rank of Oberstgruppenführer, but he declined. And Epp, in the LIFE images they always called him as Colonel General (example : http://images.google.com/hosted/life/l? ... %26hl%3Den)...

Re: Number of Wehrmacht Generals
Hi,
Would anyone have an organizational structure (with department heads) of the Reichskriegsgericht? I am especially interested those who held general-equivalent rank, such as Alfred Schrag, Friedrich Neuroth, etc.
I have a listing of Generalrichters, Generalstabsrichters, etc, but Schrag does not appear on it. I know that he was an Oberkriegsgerichtsrat im Generalsrang (later Oberreichskriegsanwalt), but I thought those titles changed in 1944 with the formation of the TSD.
Then there is the title of Senatspräsident which I don't really know too much about.
Thanks,
Doug

Re: Number of Wehrmacht Generals
Doug this would be a new very interesting thread

You may open this new thread as a highlight for the New Year

Re: Number Of Wehrmacht Generals
Hello, The number 2734 is the total number who served in the Army, from 1939-1945. It does not, and SHOULD NOT, include retired and/or honorary generals. And yes, my list includes physicians, veterinarians, lawyers, beamtes, etc. If anyone wants to include certain retired generals, why not include all of the rest, which numbers 1077 german and 1350 austrians, all were alive and retired' More on this topic will follow.
