Live and act

After attending primary school , Fritz Fuchs was trained as a banker from 1908. In 1911 he became a bank clerk. From 1914 to 1918 he took part in the First World War, in which he made it to the rank of deputy sergeant.

In 1923 he became deputy cooperative manager and in 1933 cooperative manager of a municipal credit union in Bad Soden. In 1937 he left the management of the cooperative. In addition, up to this point he was bank director at Bankverein zu Offenbach am Main.

On June 6, 1925, Fuchs joined the NSDAP ( membership number 999), in which he then took on tasks as a local group leader in Bad Soden. He also became a member of the SS in 1925 , from which he switched to the SA in 1930 and rose there in 1940 to become Sturmbannführer. For the party he was from 1927 to 1937 alderman in Bad Soden and from 1933 to 1937 additionally deputy in the Main-Taunus district council. In 1933 he became an honorary district leader of the Main-Taunus district and from the beginning of October 1937 to early August 1940 he was a full-time district leader in Mainz . At the beginning of August 1940, Fuchs became NSV district manager in the Gau Hessen-Nassau as successor to Haug and from October 1943 district head of the NSV. In October 1943 he was reappointed district leader in Mainz and led the Volkssturm there in 1944/45 . At the end of March 1945 he was district leader of Büdingen for a few days .

On January 28, 1943, Fuchs joined the retirement process for the resigned Adalbert Gimbel as a member of the National Socialist Reichstag , to which he belonged until the end of the Nazi regime in spring 1945 as a representative of constituency 19 (Hessen-Nassau).

On June 18, 1945, he was sent to the Dachau internment camp by the Americans, after having fled from the American troops to the previously unoccupied parts of the German Reich . From Dachau he came to Darmstadt, where he expected to be denazified on November 6, 1947 . As the "main culprit", he was sentenced to ten years in a labor camp. This judgment was overturned in 1950 by the Hessian Minister for Political Liberation. In the new proceedings that followed, he was only classified as “incriminated”.
