INTRODUCTION 5. Persons _will be subject to arrest: if they have at any time held a _rank or ap~mtment falling ·within the automatic arrest categories, 1. The object of this handbook is to enlarge on the categories with the followmg exceptions :- laid down in the Mandaton- Arrest Directive, and to assist Counter­ Intelligence staffs in carrying out the arrest policy. (a) Persons dismissed by the Xazis, on grounds of political unreliability 2. The handbook comprises :- (b) Persons who retired from such an appointment before 1933. (a) A statement of the categories included in the :\laudatory 6. The fact that a person does not fall within the automatic arrest Arrest Directi,·e categories does not exempt him from arrest if he is indiddually suspect. (b) A brief appreciation of each category, together with a detailed breakdown by rank and/or function of persons 7. It should be noted that feminine counterparts exist for many falling within the category. of the male ranks listed in PART THREE, especially in the Police and the Civil Service. Female ranks haYe been specifically listed for 3. It would be unwise to attempt to lay do"rn any hard and fast the SS-Helferinnen and the BDM. In all other known cases, the female rules for determining priorities between the categories. The Arrest rank, where existing, is the same as the male, with the addition of the Policy has been framed to ensure the security of the occupying forces, normal feminine suffix-in; such ranks will be readilv identified and the liquidation of the German Intelligence Services, the disbandment have, therefore, not been shown. · of the Nazi Party in all its ramifications, and the de-Nazification of German institutions. It is not possible to say, it is indeed unlikely, that the most serious danger to the security of the occupying forces will come from any one of the organisations listed. All that can be said is that it is probable that Himmler will be at the centre of resi.,,tance and that he ,.,,;11 have recruited men and women from some or all of the organisations. 4. It might be possible to give approximate estimates of the numbers involved in each arrest category (an overall estimate for the whole of Germany and Austria would be 300,000), but such estimates serve little useful purpose, since it ,.,,;11 be found that the majority of arrestable persons 'dll fall under more than one of the categories laid down in PART T"·o. This oYerlapping is due to the high degree of integration of the ::-fazi Party with the German State. Under the general heading of "Party" are included not only the ~SDAP proper, but also all its forn1ations (notably the SS) and its Affiliated or Supervised Organisations. Under the heading " State," taken in the most general sense, we must consider not only all l'l'linistry officials, but the Civil Service in general, whether employed b~- the central or local authorities. On all level3, therefore, " State " and " Party " may be found represented in the same person. Thus the leading German officials \\ill not only bold " State " rank, but also " Party " rank; the best example is Himmler, who as Refohsleiter (member of the hig!lest Party directorate), as hllnister of the Interior, and as C-in-C of the SS and German Police, is in effect holding two" State "ranks and two" Party " ranks. Similarly, at regional Je,·el, the Reichsstattlialter (Reich Repre­ sentative at each regional government) is simultaneously, except in the case of Bavaria, the Party Gauleiter of the region. In 1941, 81·9 per cent. of senior Civil Servants at regional level were Nazi appoint ees ; it may be assumed that all these men still hold Party ranks in addition to their Ci,;i Service ranks. The P olice are the best example of this overlapping ; primarily Ch·il Servants in the employ of the Minister of (C55~39) B 2 4 5 PART TWO E. PARA-MILITARY ORGANISATIONS I.

NEW HAVEN, CONN. TO MY PARENTS Preface The dawn of the twentieth century witnessed the climax of imperialistic competition in Europe among the Great Pow­ ers. Entrenched in two opposing camps, they glared at each other over mountainous stockpiles of weapons gathered in feverish armament races. In the one camp was situated the Triple Entente, in the other the Triple Alliance of the Central Powers under Germany's leadership. The final and tragic re­ sult of this rivalry was World War I, during which Germany attempted to realize her imperialistic conception of M itteleuropa with the Berlin-Baghdad-Basra railway project to the Near East. Thus there would have been established a transcontinental highway for German industrial and commercial expansion through the Persian Gull to the Asian market. The security of this highway required that the pressure of Russian imperi­ alism on the Middle East be eliminated by the fragmentation of the Russian colonial empire into its ethnic components. Germany· planned the formation of a belt of buffer states ( asso­ ciated with the Central Powers and Turkey) from Finland, Beloruthenia ( Belorussia), Lithuania, Poland to Ukraine, the Caucasus, and even to Turkestan. The outbreak and nature of the Russian Revolution in 1917 offered an opportunity for Imperial Germany to realize this plan.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE FURTHEST WATCH OF THE REICH: NATIONAL SOCIALISM, ETHNIC GERMANS, AND THE OCCUPATION OF THE SERBIAN BANAT, 1941-1944 Mirna Zakic, Ph.D., 2011 Directed by: Professor Jeffrey Herf, Department of History This dissertation examines the Volksdeutsche (ethnic Germans) of the Serbian Banat (northeastern Serbia) during World War II, with a focus on their collaboration with the invading Germans from the Third Reich, and their participation in the occupation of their home region. It focuses on the occupation period (April 1941-October 1944) so as to illuminate three major themes: the mutual perceptions held by ethnic and Reich Germans and how these shaped policy; the motivation behind ethnic German collaboration; and the events which drew ethnic Germans ever deeper into complicity with the Third Reich. The Banat ethnic Germans profited from a fortuitous meeting of diplomatic, military, ideological and economic reasons, which prompted the Third Reich to occupy their home region in April 1941. They played a leading role in the administration and policing of the Serbian Banat until October 1944, when the Red Army invaded the Banat. The ethnic Germans collaborated with the Nazi regime in many ways: they accepted its worldview as their own, supplied it with food, administrative services and eventually soldiers. They acted as enforcers and executors of its policies, which benefited them as perceived racial and ideological kin to Reich Germans. These policies did so at the expense of the multiethnic Banat‟s other residents, especially Jews and Serbs. In this, the Third Reich replicated general policy guidelines already implemented inside Germany and elsewhere in German-occupied Europe.
