The comradeship "Carl von Clausewitz" was a comradeship at the Silesian Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität and the Technical University of Wroclaw during the National Socialist era .
history
The corp house of the Marcomannia was occupied by an SA storm after the student associations were banned at the end of 1935 . In the winter semester of 1936/37, pressure from the Gaustudentenführung resulted in a comradeship 3 of the Hundred I , which was recruited from members of the Corps Marcomannia Breslau and the “black” (non-colored) association Wratislavia in the Miltenberger Ring . A little later it was after the mountain Siling in camaraderie "Siling" renamed. Since no suitable rooms were available, there was no old rulership and there was general uncertainty about the tasks and meaning of such a comradeship, the cohesion among the members was only loose. That changed when in July 1938 the comradeship got the Marcomannen House back for reuse. After extensive cleaning and restoration of the homeliness, the student coats of arms of Marcomannia and Wratislavia were hung in the traditional room and a (militarily regulated) active company was set up.
Wartime
In the winter semester of 1938/39 it was decided at the suggestion of Wratislavia's AH chairman Gericke to adopt the name "Carl von Clausewitz". Carl von Clausewitz had died of cholera in the Wratislaven house in 1831 . The colors chosen were black-silver-light green: black from Marcomannia, light green from Wratislavia and silver from the Clausewitz family coat of arms. A circle (student union) was also created. Old men were missing and were "wedged" in the Buxenart . From 1939 there was an increasing tendency to at least partially resume the old traditions.
When the Wehrmacht seized the house on Breslauer Kirschallee in the summer of 1940 , the comradeship meetings were held in the Barisch restaurant on Kronprinzenstraße. In the summer semester of 1941, the comradeship moved to the homely boathouse. Amazingly, the house could be moved into again in the winter semester of 1941/42. The number of members of the “Clausewitz” comradeship increased. In the SS 1943 there were 17 old boys ( iaCB ), 17 boys ( CB ) and 8 young comrades ( foxes ).
From the winter semester 1943/44 in barracks the army (Wehrmacht) including many Clausewitzer - - medical students on the camaraderie house. In the summer semester of 1944, the older medical students were sent to the Medical Academy in Düsseldorf .
post war period
Under the pressure of the Gleichschaltung and the Aryan paragraph , Marcomannia (like other corps) had struck out “non-Aryan” corps brothers from their lists and , in hasty obedience, elected Helmuth Brückner , the former Gauleiter of Silesia, undeservedly to the honorary corps bush. In the post-war period , a Marcomannia FCC decided not to recognize the comradeship "Carl von Clausewitz" as a successor organization to the Corps; Former members should not be able to be awarded the corps colors only because of their affiliation.
The Königstein-Wratislavia connection was reconstituted in Frankfurt am Main . She took in many former Clausewitzers and suspended them because of a lack of young people.
