Siegfried Blattmann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Siegfried Blattmann (born February 2, 1910 in Paris , † around 1947) was a German geologist.

Blattmann received his doctorate in 1934 at the University of Tübingen (The Deformation Types of the Radstädter Tauern ) and was there assistant at the Mineralogical Institute. In 1938/39 he was at the Prussian Geological State Institute (in August 1938 he also applied for admission to the Geological State Institute in Vienna). During the Second World War he served as a Untersturmführer in the SS military geologists' battalion (commanded by Rolf Höhne ) and used to search for oil in occupied areas. Most recently, he was part of Unit 500, which expanded the Blue Line interception position in northern Italy in 1944/45 (some companies also fought with partisans and retaliated against the civilian population, such as the Pedescala massacre in May 1945). He had a fatal accident around 1947.
