During the uprising against Mitscherlich, organized by the National Socialist German Student Union from 1940, Schachtschabel, who was one of Mitscherlich's supporters, became one of the points of attack after his transfer. In 1941 he was banned from practicing his profession and drafted into military service. In 1941/42 he worked for the Foreign Office's archives commission. After his return to Halle there were protests that led to his transfer to the University of Marburg in 1943 .
