Georg Ahlemann

Life

He was the son of Major General Eduard Ahlemann and attended elementary schools in Strasbourg and in the Rhineland, then the secondary school in Poznan . On May 12, 1889, he joined the field artillery regiment "von Peucker" (1st Silesian) No. 6 in Breslau as a flag junior . In 1890 he was promoted to lieutenant and in 1904 to captain . From 1910 Ahlemann was chief of the marine field battery of the 3rd Sea Battalion in Tsingtau in the German Kiautschou protected area . In 1911 he was temporarily assigned to the 3rd Division of the Japanese Army to take part in maneuvers in Japan . After his return to Germany, Ahlemann served in the staff of the 3rd Lorraine Field Artillery Regiment No. 69 in Saint-Avold .

When the First World War broke out , Ahlemann was employed as a department commander in the 33rd Reserve Division . In the fall of 1914 followed his promotion to Major and was then temporarily in the stage when ammunition administration operates. Then he was deployed as a battalion commander in Reserve Infantry Regiment No. 269. From January 1917 he was commander of the Reserve Field Artillery Regiment. 1 on the Eastern and Western Front , including in the taking of the island Osel . Ahlemann, who was seriously wounded twice in the course of the war, received several awards. In addition to both classes of the Iron Cross , he was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Royal House Order of Hohenzollern with Swords and the Bavarian Military Merit Order with Swords.

In 1919 and 1920 Ahlemann was active in Berlin's “self-protection” before he was retired from the army in 1920 as a lieutenant colonel .

Ahlemann, who lived in Berlin-Grunewald until 1940 , practically did not have a job in civil life. Joined the national-conservative German National People's Party (DNVP) as early as 1919 , on December 16, 1922 he was a co-founder of the national and anti-Semitic German National Freedom Party (DVFP). When the DVFP was banned on March 23, 1923 by Reich Interior Minister Carl Severing , Ahlemann was temporarily arrested. In the course of later investigations into the female murders within the Black Reichswehr , a paramilitary formation sponsored by the Reichswehr, Ahlemann was named several times: He is said to have recruited people for the Black Reichswehr, including later perpetrators or victims of the female murders. He also had knowledge of a planned assassination attempt against Interior Minister Severing. Ahlemann denied the allegations in testimony to the police and an investigative committee of the Prussian state parliament . In front of the investigative committee, Ahlemann - like a number of other witnesses from the extreme right - stood out for his “boisterous behavior” : Ahlemann called the SPD member Erich Kuttner “an outrageous Jew, but who is immune and, under the protection of immunity, allows himself the cheek, To insult men who have turned gray in honor. ” The final report of the investigative committee came to the conclusion that Ahlemann was not involved in the femicide, but had not drawn the necessary conclusions in the case of the planned Severing attack.

From 1924 to 1925 Ahlemann was chairman of the DVFP regional association in Potsdam. At the same time he spoke at meetings for the Völkisch-Soziale Block . In the Reichstag election on May 4, 1924 , Ahlemann entered the Reichstag for the National Socialist Freedom Party (NSFP) . The NSFP was a list connection including the DVFP, which had been legal again since February 1924. In the following Reichstag election in December 1924 , the NSFP lost 18 of 32 seats, and Ahlemann also left the Reichstag. Ahlemann joined the NSDAP in 1925, but left the party in 1926 to join the Tannenbergbund around Ludendorff . Until 1929 he was the Berlin regional leader of the Tannenbergbund and at the same time authorized director of the publishing house of the Deutsche Wochenschau , then he rejoined the NSDAP. From 1929 to 1934 the official Reich speaker of the NSDAP, Ahlemann also published some political writings. On April 24, 1932, he was elected to the Prussian state parliament for the NSDAP .

After the " seizure of power " by the National Socialists, Georg Ahlemann received another mandate in the Reichstag on November 12, 1933 . With the Reichstag mandate and the position of deputy chairman of the supervisory board of Adolf Deichsel Drahtwerke und Seilfabriken AG in Hindenburg in Upper Silesia , Ahlemann remained almost insignificant during the National Socialist era. From 1940 Ahlemann lived on Gut Ruhenheim near Oppenbach in the district of Grätz (Wartheland) . In 1945 he fled to West Germany. The place and exact time of his death are unknown, however, according to clues and information from the home town index, Ahlemann must have died before 1962.
