Major Hecht?

5. may 1945 a LW Major Hecht was together with Oberstleutnant Richard Bronn when the RAF landed at Kastrup. He was a so called Kriegsoffizier. I cant match him among the Hecht in the Larry/DeZeng list, and without a first name is is not possible to track a Personalakte in Freiburg. Can anyone help here?

Jörn,

Just an intuitive guess, but I see 4 possibilities, with this one being first choice:

HECHT, Wilhelm. (DOB: 27.04.10).

Hi Larry.
Only problem he is allready an officer before the war. So I do not think that he is a Kriegsoffizier?

Re: Major Hecht?

Hmmm.............what you say makes sense, Jörn. I know the Wehrmacht commissioning and promotion regulations had some peculiarities, so I'll try and find some primary source material on this. But if I don't, then you'll have to drop him from consideration.
