In it, I was, from 29.4.1940 to September 1940, deputy Gruppenfuhrer. From September to 28th October 1940, I was Gruppenfuhrer. During the whole period, I acted as adviser on education.

I should advise you to ascribe no excessive importance to this matter, in so far as one can really ask this of a loyal National Socialist. I can once more assure you that these kinds of accusations are hardly calculated to ruin a deserving party member and SS leader.
