The motif from National Socialist propaganda shows the Obergruppenführer of the National Socialist Motor Transport Corps NSKK Karl Offermann at a roll call, taken in September 1939. On the back of the picture, the National Socialist news coverage writes: "Departure of the NSKK auxiliary police to the occupied territory. On Saturday (30.9.39), NSKK-Obergruppenführer Offermann saw off two NSKK traffic stormers who were leaving for the occupied Polish territory to perform auxiliary traffic police services. They are NSKK men who have neither a wartime order nor are in the wartime economy. In all other respects, however, the departure is voluntary and desired by the responsible police departments there. U.B. shows the NSKK men lined up for departure. NSKK-Obergruppenführer Offermann strides down their front." Photo: Fotoarchiv fuer Zeitgeschichte/Archiv / Groves [automated translation]
