    ss rank ?

    Hello, I have a medics Personalausweis filled out to an "Obertruppfuhrer", dated June 1943.
    It is authorised by an Oberstfeldmeister which I understand is an RAD rank.

    I never took too much notice and thought it was just a regular army guy, but now I realise that "Obertruppfuhrer" is possibly an SS rank ?

    There are no other SS markings on the pass.

    So is ther much chance he could be SS with the rank of Obertrupphuhrer in June of 1943 ?

    Thanks for clarification.
