Brief outline of the structure of the Nazi security forces in the Protectorate:
I will be happy for your additional information
Workers of the Security Police (Sicherheitspolizei), Security Service (Sicherheitsdienst, SD) and Abwehr (military intelligence service) also came to Prague with the German army. The Nazi security and police offices in the protectorate were divided into the security police (Sicherheitspolizei, SiPo), which consisted of the secret state police (Geheime Staatspolizei) and the criminal police (Kriminalpolizei, KriPo) and the riot police (Ordnungspolizei, OrPo). Schutzpolizei), the gendarmerie (Gendarmerie), the municipal executive police (Gemeindevollzugspolizei) and the fire protection police (Feuerschutzpolizei). The Security Service (Sicherheitsdienst, SD) worked closely with SiPo.
The activities of the security service and the security police were managed by the Central Office of the Reich Security in Berlin, the riot police were subject to the local Central Office of the riot police. K. H. Frank was commissioned to coordinate the activities of all SS and police formations in the Czech lands and, since 1944, in the Sudetenland. All components of the Nazi security apparatus have been operating in the Protectorate since March 15, 1939. The highest German police institution in the protectorate was the Office of the Commander of the Security Service and the Security Police, assigned to the office of the Reich Protector. The Central Office for Jewish Emigration, the Terezín Office, the Imperial School of Security and Security Police in Prague, and since 1944 the rest of the Prague Abwehr Central, were directly subject to him.
The head office of KriPa, whose mission was to investigate criminal crimes, economic offenses and black trade, was also located in Prague. She was subject to an office in Prague, outdoor offices and a criminal station. The head of the Kriminalpolizei was Friedrich Sowa.
The commander of the security service and security police, which in the spring of 1945 consisted of 2,000 members, were gradually Otto E. Rasch, from June 1939 Walther Stahlecker (died March 23, 1942 during the assassination in Riga, where he directed the extermination of Jews), from April 1940 Horst Böhme and from September 1942 Erwin Weinmann (born 6.7.1909, female doctor, from 1937 at the Berlin headquarters of the SD, after the war transferred to the USSR, his further fate is unknown).
The uniformed police were commanded by the commander of OrPo. He was in charge of the uniformed Czech police, he was also subject to air defense (Luftschutz) and technical emergency assistance (Technische Nothilfe). His forces were divided into police forces (barracks units) and a separate uniformed service (gendarmerie units at the Oberlandrat, guard protection, etc.). The OrPo, which had 16,500 men in the spring of 1945, was replaced by Lt. Gen. Jürgen von Kamptz, from May 1941 Maj. Gen. Otto von Oelhafen, from August 1941 Lt. Gen. Paul Riege, from September 1943 gen. E. Hitzegrad and from February 1945 gen. P. O. Geibel.
The Security Service (SD) was the SS intelligence service and its main task was to collect and evaluate information on the moods of the population and to supply data especially for the activities of SiPo. She also carried out internal political intelligence and, after the abolition of the Abwehr, espionage abroad. The structure of SD was hierarchical: the lowest links in the chain were branches (Aussenstelle), then offices, respectively. outdoor offices (Dienststelle, resp. Aussendienststelle) and section offices (Leitabschnitt), which were subordinated to the Reich Central Security Office (RSHA) in Berlin. The Sicherheitsdienst had five main rural services in the Protectorate: in Prague, Brno (commander Erich Endlicher, born December 21, 1908, missing after the war), České Budějovice (service managers were Hans Remmer, from 1940 Hans Zimmermann, from 1942 Werner Eichler and from 1944 Willy Scholz), Moravian Ostrava, Pilsen and Hradec Králové (led by Sudeten German Wernfried Pfaff, after the war an agent of the 1st Stb administration operating in the Federal Republic under the pseudonym POP), existed for a short time in Kladno, Kolín, Jičín, Jihlava (commanders were successively Karl Otto Rühl and Theodor Friedrich Unbehaunen), Klatovy, Mělník, Olomouc, Pardubice, Tábor and Zlín.The managing authority was first the Central Service of the Security Service for Bohemia and Moravia and from November 1939 Head of the Prague Security Service, headed by Horst Böhme (born 24.8.1909, businessman, since September 1933 head of the security police office in Dresden and later in Kiel). , commanded the SD unit during the burning of Lidice, one of the leaders of the action KOSTEL, from September 1942 head of the security police and SD in East Prussia in Königsberg, from March 1943 commander Einsatzgruppe B and from September 1943 Einsatzgruppe C on the Eastern Front, from November 1944 again at headquarters in Berlin, his post-war fate is unknown) and from September 1942 Walter Jacobi (born July 2, 1909, lawyer, from 1934 at the Berlin headquarters of the RSHA, after the occupation at the SD in Prague as head of Unit B, commanded SD units deployed in November 1939 against university students, from April to August 1942 Chief Commissioner of the SD, executed May 3, 1947 in Prague). A section office was established in Liberec on the detached border, and the main outdoor offices were set up in Opava, Ústí nad Labem and Karlovy Vary. Branches of these services existed, for example, in Litoměřice or in Most. From 1944, the SD in the so-called Sudetenland was organizationally subject to Prague (until then to Dresden). The position of the SD in the Sudetenland was not nearly as important as in the Protectorate. In total, the SD had about 170 members in the Protectorate.
The agency network created by the Sicherheitsdienst was as follows: honest collaborators (Ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter) stood at the top of the imaginary hierarchy. They were almost exclusively Germans. They cooperated consciously, received no rewards for their "work," and even took a special oath. Another group were confidants (V - Männer). They were followed by the so-called informers (Zubringer). Here, too, the cooperation was more or less voluntary, it was not honored. Nationality did not play such a role here as with honorary collaborators (the informers could be Germans and Czechs). The penultimate group were agents. They were paid for their activities, but surprisingly they were used very rarely. The last group consisted of so-called informants. They were mostly non-SD people who occasionally gave information without often knowing that it would be used in SD. Basically, every conscious SD collaborator could create their own agency network, both from conscious and unconscious collaborators.
The Abwehr had its office in Prague, a branch in Brno and a subordinate group in Moravian Ostrava. Abwehrstelle Prag was divided into the department of I. offensive intelligence, II. sabotage and III. defensive. The chief of the Prague service of the Abwehr was Col. von Kornatzki, his deputy Col. von Engelmann, head of agency networks was Col. Paul Thümmel alias Paul Steinberg.
In terms of terror against the population, however, the most important part of the security police was the Gestapo (Geheime Staatspolizei), the secret state police. Managing Office in Prague (headed by Hans Ulrich Geschke (born 16.5.1907, lawyer, legal representative of SA units, since 1935 head of the Gestapo office in Kiel, personally arrested Gen.

As early as October 16, 1938, a control office was established in the breakaway border in Liberec and offices in Karlovy Vary and Opava. The managing offices were divided into departments, departments, sub-departments and sectors. The most important was IV. department (so-called executive unit) with 13 papers: IV 1 - opposition, including anti-communist report, IV 2 - sabotage, sub-preferring guerrillas and paratroopers, radio counter-games, IV 3 counter-espionage, IV N - counterintelligence, evidence of confidants… At the end of the war Gestapo in the protectorate for 2,000 people.

Workers of the Security Police (Sicherheitspolizei), Security Service (Sicherheitsdienst, SD) and Abwehr (military intelligence service) also came to Prague with the German army. The Nazi security and police offices in the protectorate were divided into the security police (Sicherheitspolizei, SiPo), which consisted of the secret state police (Geheime Staatspolizei) and the criminal police (Kriminalpolizei, KriPo) and the riot police (Ordnungspolizei, OrPo). Schutzpolizei), the gendarmerie (Gendarmerie), the municipal executive police (Gemeindevollzugspolizei) and the fire protection police (Feuerschutzpolizei). The Security Service (Sicherheitsdienst, SD) worked closely with SiPo.
The activities of the security service and the security police were managed by the Central Office of the Reich Security in Berlin, the riot police were subject to the local Central Office of the riot police. K. H. Frank was commissioned to coordinate the activities of all SS and police formations in the Czech lands and, since 1944, in the Sudetenland. All components of the Nazi security apparatus have been operating in the Protectorate since March 15, 1939. The highest German police institution in the protectorate was the Office of the Commander of the Security Service and the Security Police, assigned to the office of the Reich Protector. The Central Office for Jewish Emigration, the Terezín Office, the Imperial School of Security and Security Police in Prague, and since 1944 the rest of the Prague Abwehr Central, were directly subject to him.
The head office of KriPa, whose mission was to investigate criminal crimes, economic offenses and black trade, was also located in Prague. She was subject to an office in Prague, outdoor offices and a criminal station. The head of the Kriminalpolizei was Friedrich Sowa.
The commander of the security service and security police, which in the spring of 1945 consisted of 2,000 members, were gradually Otto E. Rasch, from June 1939 Walther Stahlecker (died March 23, 1942 during the assassination in Riga, where he directed the extermination of Jews), from April 1940 Horst Böhme and from September 1942 Erwin Weinmann (born 6.7.1909, female doctor, from 1937 at the Berlin headquarters of the SD, after the war transferred to the USSR, his further fate is unknown).
The uniformed police were commanded by the commander of OrPo. He was in charge of the uniformed Czech police, he was also subject to air defense (Luftschutz) and technical emergency assistance (Technische Nothilfe). His forces were divided into police forces (barracks units) and a separate uniformed service (gendarmerie units at the Oberlandrat, guard protection, etc.). The OrPo, which had 16,500 men in the spring of 1945, was replaced by Lt. Gen. Jürgen von Kamptz, from May 1941 Maj. Gen. Otto von Oelhafen, from August 1941 Lt. Gen. Paul Riege, from September 1943 gen. E. Hitzegrad and from February 1945 gen. P. O. Geibel.
The Security Service (SD) was the SS intelligence service and its main task was to collect and evaluate information on the moods of the population and to supply data especially for the activities of SiPo. She also carried out internal political intelligence and, after the abolition of the Abwehr, espionage abroad. The structure of SD was hierarchical: the lowest links in the chain were branches (Aussenstelle), then offices, respectively. outdoor offices (Dienststelle, resp. Aussendienststelle) and section offices (Leitabschnitt), which were subordinated to the Reich Central Security Office (RSHA) in Berlin. The Sicherheitsdienst had five main rural services in the Protectorate: in Prague, Brno (commander Erich Endlicher, born December 21, 1908, missing after the war), České Budějovice (service managers were Hans Remmer, from 1940 Hans Zimmermann, from 1942 Werner Eichler and from 1944 Willy Scholz), Moravian Ostrava, Pilsen and Hradec Králové (led by Sudeten German Wernfried Pfaff, after the war an agent of the 1st Stb administration operating in the Federal Republic under the pseudonym POP), existed for a short time in Kladno, Kolín, Jičín, Jihlava (commanders were successively Karl Otto Rühl and Theodor Friedrich Unbehaunen), Klatovy, Mělník, Olomouc, Pardubice, Tábor and Zlín.The managing authority was first the Central Service of the Security Service for Bohemia and Moravia and from November 1939 Head of the Prague Security Service, headed by Horst Böhme (born 24.8.1909, businessman, since September 1933 head of the security police office in Dresden and later in Kiel). , commanded the SD unit during the burning of Lidice, one of the leaders of the action KOSTEL, from September 1942 head of the security police and SD in East Prussia in Königsberg, from March 1943 commander Einsatzgruppe B and from September 1943 Einsatzgruppe C on the Eastern Front, from November 1944 again at headquarters in Berlin, his post-war fate is unknown) and from September 1942 Walter Jacobi (born July 2, 1909, lawyer, from 1934 at the Berlin headquarters of the RSHA, after the occupation at the SD in Prague as head of Unit B, commanded SD units deployed in November 1939 against university students, from April to August 1942 Chief Commissioner of the SD, executed May 3, 1947 in Prague). A section office was established in Liberec on the detached border, and the main outdoor offices were set up in Opava, Ústí nad Labem and Karlovy Vary. Branches of these services existed, for example, in Litoměřice or in Most. From 1944, the SD in the so-called Sudetenland was organizationally subject to Prague (until then to Dresden). The position of the SD in the Sudetenland was not nearly as important as in the Protectorate. In total, the SD had about 170 members in the Protectorate.
The agency network created by the Sicherheitsdienst was as follows: honest collaborators (Ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter) stood at the top of the imaginary hierarchy. They were almost exclusively Germans. They cooperated consciously, received no rewards for their "work," and even took a special oath. Another group were confidants (V - Männer). They were followed by the so-called informers (Zubringer). Here, too, the cooperation was more or less voluntary, it was not honored. Nationality did not play such a role here as with honorary collaborators (the informers could be Germans and Czechs). The penultimate group were agents. They were paid for their activities, but surprisingly they were used very rarely. The last group consisted of so-called informants. They were mostly non-SD people who occasionally gave information without often knowing that it would be used in SD. Basically, every conscious SD collaborator could create their own agency network, both from conscious and unconscious collaborators.
The Abwehr had its office in Prague, a branch in Brno and a subordinate group in Moravian Ostrava. Abwehrstelle Prag was divided into the department of I. offensive intelligence, II. sabotage and III. defensive. The chief of the Prague service of the Abwehr was Col. von Kornatzki, his deputy Col. von Engelmann, head of agency networks was Col. Paul Thümmel alias Paul Steinberg.

As early as October 16, 1938, a control office was established in the breakaway border in Liberec and offices in Karlovy Vary and Opava. The managing offices were divided into departments, departments, sub-departments and sectors. The most important was IV. department (so-called executive unit) with 13 papers: IV 1 - opposition, including anti-communist report, IV 2 - sabotage, sub-preferring guerrillas and paratroopers, radio counter-games, IV 3 counter-espionage, IV N - counterintelligence, evidence of confidants… At the end of the war Gestapo in the protectorate for 2,000 people.
