The defense district command 21 was a defense area command of the Armed Forces with the seat of the rod in Osnabrück . The main task of the command was the territorial defense in its defense district.
history
Lineup
The defense district command was to assume the army structure II in the 1960s as part of the Territorial Army deallocated and the commanders in the Military District II assumed. Based on the civil administrative structure , the defense district roughly corresponded to the Osnabrück administrative region . The location of the Osnabrück staff was accordingly.
resolution
In 1978 the Osnabrück administrative district was dissolved. Its territory went up together with the administrative district of Oldenburg and the administrative district of Aurich in the newly established administrative district of Weser-Ems . Accordingly, Defense District Command 21 was decommissioned. From 1978, Defense District Command 24 in Oldenburg was responsible for the entire Weser-Ems administrative district.
structure
Like most units of the Territorial Army, the Defense District Command consisted of only a few active soldiers. Only in the case of defense , the defense district command could by the convening of reserve and the mobilization stored and civilian material to a force levels increase , the last about one brigade of the Army corresponded. For the longest time of its existence the Defense District Command, derived from the civil administrative structure, was further subdivided into subordinate Defense District Commands .
Association badge
The Defense District Command did not have its own association badge due to its planning as a predominantly non-active unit . The few active soldiers therefore wore the association badge of the superior military area command .
As a "badge" for some of the other defense district commands, the internal association badge of the staff and the staff company " pars pro toto " for the entire defense district command was therefore sometimes used imprecisely . However, the Defense District Command 21 was dissolved as early as 1978, shortly before the introduction of the internal association badge in the Bundeswehr around 1980, and therefore never had an internal association badge.
