Generalgouvernement - History, Organization, & Personalities
Generalgouvernement - 1940
My father was with the XXX Armeekorps which was in East Prussia / Generalgouvernement at Neidenburg, East Prussia, August 1940 to December, 1940. Dad's diary called it "border defense" duty. Here are a couple of photos. Looks like a tough assignment!
This was a fox hunt. My father rode in the hunt with other officers and locals. There was a band there also.
My dad is third from the right in to top photo and third from the left in the bottom. You can also find other photos under Karl Gerstenmeier in other threads.

Hj Leader with Frank
It is the HJ Gebietsführer Günther BLUM, he is wearing the oak leaves of a HJ Gebietsführer ... group of oakleaves in gold with gold piping.
I think it is the same Blum we had in Gera in 1940, he was a Gebfu then also, when I was a tiny pimpf. ...The Hauptbannführer had double-silver leaves with a pip, and the one below him would have had the same without a pip, but with a Bann number above the leaves...on the picture only one group of leaves is visible on Blum's shoulder strap. He is also wearing a GG Gebietsdreieck on the left arm. The person smiling, to his left seem to have silver piping and is probably the Bannführer for Warsaw.
