OTTO WEIDINGER
(1914 - 1990) Waffen-SS Obersturmbannfuhrer and commander of the regiment "Der Fuhrer" and 2nd SS Division "Das Reich", implicated in the Oradour massacre in France in June 1944. T.L.S. on "Regiments-Kameradschaft DF" letterhead, 1p. 4to., Aalen, Nov. 1, 1972 to the son of a veteran, in part: " ...The regiments meeting is now two weeks past, again a special experience. I was happy about your attendance and the kind words you gave about your father. Royalties of 102.75 DM will be transferred to your account for the third quarter 1972. At the 17. Regiment ''DF'' meeting we gave you a savings book of over DM 1300. Please let me know the exact number..." Weidinger continues with suggestions how to best invest the funds. Also present are two hand-written speeches, one 4pp. 4to., and the other 3pp. 4to., delivered by the recipient of Weidinger''s letter to the veterans at an organization meeting. Fine.
