Hermann Graf's fate after WW2
 
He became a salesman for an "electronics" manufaturer and rose to branch manager in "Baden" after the war.
Which Baden are we talking about?
Baden-Württenberg, where he was born, or Baden in Switzerland?

Thanks in advance.

This link on wikipedia (not always accurate, but.......) says in the "Later Life Section" toward the bottom of the article that it was Baden-Württenberg.

Hello,

Another possibility would be the town of Baden Baden, some 40 km N of Strasbourg

Hello CJE
In his book on Graf & Grislawski Christer Bergström writes "in Baden - Württemberg"

Hi Juha,

They can be trusted.
So I take it for granted.

Merci.

Baden-Württemberg is a one of the states in Germany (similar to the U.S.), not a city in Württemberg. Nevertheless, there is a city called Baden-Baden within Baden-Württemberg and also Engen, his place of birth and death is in the same state. ;)
