AOK 18 refers to 18.Armee... http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/...en/18Armee.htm
While Ic tends to refer to the Staff Officer's position.Last edited by hucks216; 04-10-2016, 09:16 AM. -

Unfortunately, with the French language I have problem. However, according to this link, I found the authors (Albert Fedorovich Starodubchev) who is cited in the text, and his appears to have been written a book "Double invisible front. Leningrad chekists behind enemy lines." The book is in Russian, which I understood: Альберт Федорович Стародубцев "Дважды невидимый фронт Ленинградские чекисты в тылу врага" http://www.libros.am/book/read/id/27...y-v-tylu-vragaOriginally posted by Ian Jewison View Post
There is also mentioned about von Wackerbarth:
"... the all section 1a intelligence and contra-intelligence services work led by Major von Wackerbarth ... ".
Thus, the Kennbuch owner served 1c section/ counterintelligence (abwer)?Comment

Le chef de l'unité "1C" était le chef de l'état major de la 18ème Armée Detlev Leberecht Otto Egon von Wackerbarth, un descendant d'une riche famille d'aristocrate, descendant d'une famille allemande (plus précisément en Prusse) le Generalfeldmarschall (surnom qu'on lui donna fréquemment et modifié dans les publications, ou il a été dénommé "Vakkerbard" et il fut encore dénommé par d'autre encore bien pire). Qui lui était un membre du parti nazi à partir du mois de mai 1933. Il apparu lui-même en tant que soldat capable en Grèce, ou a travers sa rigidité, il a liquidé le soulèvement dans les montagnes. Il a traqué et liquidé de gros groupes de partisan Athéniens. C'était un agent de contre espionnage expérimenté, qui pouvait avec un sang froid contrôler avec ruse les prochains coups de ses adversaires ennemi, et était autant un joueur d'échec intelligent. Il était intrépide en améliorant ses méthodes les plus diverses de provocation

The head of the "1C" unit was the Chief of Staff of the Army 18th Detlev Otto Egon Leberecht von Wackerbarth, a descendant of a wealthy aristocratic family, descendant of a German family (specifically in Prussia ) Generalfeldmarschall (nickname we gave him and changed frequently in publications, or it was referred to as "Vakkerbard" and was also called by other much worse). That he was a member of the Nazi party from May 1933. He appeared himself as a soldier able in Greece, or through its rigidity, it has liquidated the uprising in the mountains. He tracked down and liquidated wholesale Athenians partisan groups. He was an agent of espionage against experienced, who could control with a cool trick with the next moves of his opponents enemy, and was as much a clever chess player. He was fearless in improving its various methods of provocationPhotos/images copyright © Ian Jewison collection
