Is it known which unit Brigadefuhrer Christoph Diehm belonged to, sir? Thank you.
Beautiful helmet, by the way.
Too bad that the eagle is fake. Hope the OP can get a refund.
The following assignments for Diehm are found in the SS-Dienstalterslisten [SS officers' seniority lists]:
- Commander of Abschnitt XIX (as per SS-DAL of 1 October 1934 and 1 July 1935)
- Commander of Abschnitt I (as per SS-DAL of 1 Dec. 1936, 1 Dec. 1937 and 1 Dec. 1938)
- Detailed to the staff of Oberabschnit West (as per the 15 June 1939 addendum to the 1 Dec. 38 list)
- SS-Hauptamt (as per SS-DAL of 9 Nov. 1944)
Mark C. Yerger's work on the Allgemeine SS also lists the following assignments for Diehm:
- Commander of SS-Abschnitt X (22 March 1932 - 15 July 1933)
- with Himmler's staff (after early Jan. 1942 - March 1942)
- with the RSHA (March 1943 - early Nov. 1944)
- SS-und Polizeiführer Shitomir (25 Jan. 1944 - 25 Feb. 1944)
- SS- und Polizeiführer Lemberg (25 Feb. 1944 - 16 Sept. 1944)
- substitute Höherer SS- und Polizeiführer Belgien-Nordfrankreich (16 Sept. 1944 - 18 Jan. 1945)
- SS- und Polizeiführer Kattowitz (Oct. 1944 - 1945; apparently only titular)
(He also lists the duration of his appointments as the commander of Abschnitt I as being from 15 March 1936 to 1 March 1939 and as the commander of Abschnitt XIX as being from 15 July 1933 to 15 March 1936 and gives the duration of his assignment to Oberabschnitt West as being until early Jan. 1942)
