The defense district command 24 was a defense area command of the Armed Forces with the seat of the bar in Oldenburg . 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 administrative district of Oldenburg and the administrative district of Aurich . In Army Structure II, Defense District Command 24 was one of the few defense district commands with an intergovernmental command area. The location of the staff was Oldenburg .
extension
In 1978 the administrative district of Osnabrück , the administrative district of Aurich and the administrative district of Oldenburg were dissolved and merged to form the newly established administrative district of Weser-Ems . The defense district command 21 has been taken out of service and incorporated the command area which is approximately equivalent to the Region of Osnabruck, the defense district 24th The Defense District Command 24 was now responsible for the entire area of the administrative district Weser-Ems, so that in northwest Germany the military territorial organization and the political administrative division now coincided for the first time.
Change to the armed forces base
In 2001 the territorial army was disbanded. The military area commands and defense district commands were subordinated to the newly established armed forces base . The defense areas and defense districts were fundamentally reorganized and their number reduced. The Defense District Command 24 was subordinated to Defense Area I. The layout of Defense District 24, unlike most of the Defense Districts, remained essentially unchanged during the reorganization. The subordinate defense district commands were dissolved and some of its tasks were transferred to the newly established district liaison commands.
resolution
Defense District Command 24 was decommissioned in 2007. Some of his assignments were transferred to the newly established Lower Saxony state command and subordinate district liaison commands.
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 troop strength increase that around 1989 about a (large) Brigade of the Army corresponded. For the longest time of its existence, the Defense District Command was subdivided into subordinate Defense District Commands, derived from the civil administrative structure . Several homeland security companies and a homeland security regiment as the core of the infantry -style homeland security force were either directly subordinate to the 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", the internal association badge of the staff and the staff company " pars pro toto " was sometimes used imprecisely for the entire defense district command. It was essentially a reference to the deployment of space as figures the Osnabrücker spoked wheel as in Osnabrück city coat of arms and the yellow-red beams of the house Oldenburg . The standing oak leaves on the green weapon color of the hunters' troops , as a traditional symbol of German land forces, was reminiscent of the beret badge of the hunter's troops, which provided large parts of the homeland security force subordinate to the defense district command . Similarly, the oak leaves were shown in the badge of the Homeland Security Brigade 52 stationed in the Defense District .
