Military Administration (Nazi Germany)

During World War II, German forces set up military-led regimes in occupied territories which were known as a Military administration or Military administration authority. These differed from Reichskommissariate which were led by Nazi Party (NSDAP) officials. A Military administration was normally led by a "military commander".

Ranks
Officials of the Military administration, regardless of service in the Wehrmacht, war economy, military education facilities, or in the military-led regimes in occupied territories, wore military rank insignias similar to those of the Wehrmacht. These were characterised by the main corps colour (de: Hauptfarbe) dark green, and various secondary colours (de: Nebenfarben) as well. Here are a select few of the ranks in the Military administration: • General-senior-staff intendant (de: Generaloberstabsintendant [equivalent OF8, three-star rank]); corps colour "deep red" to army officials with general officer rank • Ministerial director (Ministerialdirektor, equivalent to OF7, two-star rank); corps colour "deep red" to army officials with general officer rank • Store master (Magazinmeister equivalent WO2, Fähnrich (NVA) rank); corps colour "black" to army officials in technical appointment rank ==Locations==
