Hello Rossano !

The source is T314 R024.
There are two Stellenbesetzungen for 15.9.44 and 15.10.44, starting at Frame 000435.

When I looked it up, I noticed that there is also an appendix and in F000441 it says:
i) Other topics :
Oblt. d.R. Frhr. von Seherr-Thoss was before on the position of a Hilfs-Offizier of FK 677 Poitiers
and had been commanded to the HQ/Stab des Befehlshabers SW-Frankreich since 1.4.1944.
Because the FK 677 should have been dissovled by now, he is now assigned to this HQ permanently.
[I don't know the precise translation of : wird ab jetzt hier [HQ Korps Feldt] planmässig geführt.]

Again, something I overlooked before. Sorry!
So before, 1.4.1944, THIS Manfred, Olt. d.R. was with FK 677, but unclear since when.
Perhaps someone has infos on this Feldkommandantur 677 ?

Best regards,
hero.

P.S.: The nickname was intended to be read as hero(dot). Not a hero(e), just someone interested in history.
Perhaps I should change it ...

Hello Georges Jerome and Rossano !

@Rossano : You are welcome!
@Georges Jerome:
Many thanks for sharing your information on FK 677. Great !
So this FK 677 was not dissolved, but existed to the end.
(The statement in the KTB then just shows how confused the situation was in September 1944 at the Western Front).

I don't think that there are any Stellenbesetzungen available for the FK 667?
I assume, as a Hilfsoffizier Oberleutnant d.R. Manfred Friedrich Wilhelm Freiherr von Seherr-Thoß will rarely
show up anywhere in orders or Veränderungsmitteilungen ?!

At least we have now a little more on him in 1944.
Thanks for the help and best regards,
hero.
