Kurt Vogel (General)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kurt Vogel (born October 31, 1908 ; † May 12, 2003 ) was a German brigadier general and member of the repair force .

Due to his experience in and after the Second World War in the fields of wheeled and tracked vehicles, the organization and training of repair services as well as in the field of military motor vehicles, Vogel was involved in the preparation of the establishment of the Bundeswehr, and ultimately decided to use the remaining distinctive sign " Y “on the Bundeswehr license plate . The appointment as brigadier general took place in the 106th cabinet meeting on January 17, 1964. Vogel was the editor of several paperbacks for troop technology and repair.

In 1990, on Vogel's initiative, the “Blauer Bund” association was founded, an interest group for logistics, armaments and use in the Bundeswehr.
