<strong>GUIDES</strong> <strong>TO</strong> <strong>GERMAN</strong> <strong>RECORDS</strong> MICROFILMED AT ALEXANDRIA, VA.No. 56. Records of German Field Commands: Armies (Part IX)The National ArchivesNational Archives and Records ServiceGeneral Services AdministrationWashington: 1968


R E F AThis Guide is one of a series of finding aids describingthe seized German records deposited in the National Archives.The series was initiated by the Microfilming Project of theCommittee for the Study of War Documents of the American HistoricalAssociation in cooperation with the National Archivesand the Department of the Army. With the termination of theAHA project in July 19&3» the National Archives assumed soleresponsibility for the reproduction of records and the preparationof Guides.This is one of a number of Guides describing the recordsof the German Army field <strong>com</strong>mands. These records fall intofive categories: Records of Army Groups, Records of Armies,Records of Corps, Records of Divisions, and Occupational andOther Records.This Guide, which constitutes Part IX of records of thearmies, describes the contents of 258 rolls of microfilm reproducingrecords of the Fourth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth,Eleventh, Fourteenth, and Twenty-Fifth Armies, of the GermanGeneral with the Italian Eighth Army, and of Armeegruppe Wbhler.Additional records of most of these units are described in earlierGuides. Those in this Guide are largely records which werepreviously security classified or otherwise not available formicrofilming. Where appropriate, a footnote on the first pageof each unit's listing cites the relevant Guide number. Therecords in this Guide include material on the campaign in Polandin 1939, the security of the Upper Rhine area in 1939-^0, thecampaign in western Europe in 19^0 and 19^-^5, the occupation ofFrance and Poland in 19^0-UU, the campaign against the SovietUnion in 19^1-1*5, and the campaign in Italy in 19^3-^5.The provenance to which the documents are attributed isthe army headquarters that originally kept the file, althougha large proportion of the items had in fact been retired bythe units to the Heeresarchiv Potsdam for permanent retention.There an accession number was stamped or written on the cover,and it is by this numbering system that the folders were organizedin the World War II Records Division and its predecessor,the Departmental Records Branch of the Department of the Army,which office administered the records before the assumptionof these duties by the National Archives. All folders accessionedby the Heeresarchiv were assigned numbers in sequenceand logged in by unit in the Potsdam Catalog. All such foldersbear numbers below 75,000. Folders that had not gonethrough the Heeresarchiv accessioning process before captureor had never been retired to the Heeresarchiv were givenfolder numbers in an extension of the Heeresarchiv systemusing numbers above 75jOOO, but otherwise following thePotsdam pattern.Considerable information on the fate of Germany's militaryrecords during World War II, including information onseveral destructive fires and subsequent efforts to reconstructrecords that were burned, may be found in the filesof the Chef der Heeresarchive in the German Army HighCommand. (These records were filmed as Microcopy No. T-?8,Rolls 1-38, and are described in Guide No. 12 of this series.)The descriptive material for the units was prepared oncards and each card has been filmed before the folder it describes.The cards for all folders on one roll of film arealso filmed at the beginning of that roll. This Guide containsthe text of the cards.A short unit history precedes the file item listing foreach army. The unit history has also been filmed at thebeginning of each roll of the unit's records.The term "Roll" in the Guide refers to the sequence ofthe film. "1st Frame" gives the frame number of the firstpage of the folder. The "Item No." is the identificationiii


symbol on the original folder. The "Item" provides (a) theabbreviation of the staff section that originated the document,(b) the title appearing on the folder cover, and (c)additional information providing a general idea of the contents. The inclusive dates of the file item are given undera "Date" column.The original records have been returned to the FederalRepublic of Germany. The microfilm has been deposited withthe Publications Sales Branch, National Archives, Washington,D.C. 20*408, as Microcopy T-312. The microfilm may be consultedat the National Archives or copies may be ordered.A price list is included at the end of the Guide.The descriptions were prepared by Anton F. Grassl, IgnazErnst, Charles F. Gordon, Katharina Posner, Howard J. Puckett,Richard Scharf, and Henni Schwarz under the supervision ofDonald E. Spencer. Johanna M. Wagner prepared the stencils.IV
