Meaning of SSD?

Many of the Luftwaffe orders and telegrams online in the Bundesarchiv have the letters SSD in their headings. Does anyone know what this means?

Re: Meaning of SSD?

Eisenhower, who was quoting Dr J. Roscoe Miller, president of Northwestern University, said: "I have two kinds of problems: the urgent and the important. The urgent are not important, and the important are never urgent." This "Eisenhower Principle" is said to be how he organized his workload and priorities.
