history
Lineup
The Defense District Command was planned to take over Army Structure II in the 1960s as part of the Territorial Army and subordinated to the Commander in Defense Area III . Based on the civil administrative structure , the defense district roughly corresponded to the Münster administrative district . The location of the Münster staff was accordingly .
resolution
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. Defense District Command 33 was decommissioned and its command area was incorporated into Defense District 35 .
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 , which is about a brigade of the Army corresponded. For the longest time of its existence, the Defense District Command, derived from the civilian administrative structure, was roughly divided into Defense District Commands with subordinate Homeland Security Companies and a directly subordinate Homeland Security Regiment as the core of the infantry -based homeland security force .
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. Essentially, as a reference to the stationing area, it showed the Westphalian horse as figures and a stylized view of the gable and archway of the historic town hall on the Prinzipalmarkt as well as the federal eagle as a national emblem of Germany .
