Untitled[edit]

As a middle-ranking SS official, given a sinecure position by his brother-in-law, is he really important enough to justify an article in Wikipedia?

The "He is believed to have been..." isn't really good enough. What's the evidence, where are the sources?

It is more his position as overseer of Wewelsburg that makes him noteworthy - than his relatively low rank. As per the Irminism sources, it is a reference to a 1934 letter that survived and is signed in Irminist loyalty, Manfred von Knobelsdorff. I originally read this in a book about Wewelsburg, though I also see it referenced online at [1]
