Wilhelm Dennler (born April 27, 1902 in Lauf near Nuremberg ; † unknown) was a German ministerial official and SA leader, most recently with the rank of SA brigade leader .

Live and act

After graduating from the Wilhelmsgymnasium in Munich in 1921 , Dennler studied law at the University of Heidelberg . He completed his studies in 1924 with a doctorate to become Dr. jur. from. On April 27, 1929 Dennler was appointed deputy labor office director in Weissenburg .

Shortly after the National Socialists came to power in the spring of 1933, Dennler was appointed Deputy President of the State Labor Office in Bavaria. During this time he was also noticed because of his involvement in the actions of the Nazi terrorist organs against politically dissenting people: In May 1933, for example, he had the director of the Holzkirchen Netzsch employment office - an SPD member - arrested by the SA and handed over to the police.

After the beginning of the Second World War , Dennler moved to Prague in October 1939 as an employee of the Reich Protector for Bohemia and Moravia Reinhard Heydrich . There he became a senior government councilor, later a ministerial councilor, in the office of the Reich Protector, the State Ministry for Bohemia and Moravia, head of Group II 4, which was responsible for labor issues. He was a member of the Reich Protector's staff as a consultant for the employment offices. After a reorganization (?) He took over the group X (labor and social affairs), which during the Second World War was concerned with the coordination of all measures for the labor deployment of the Protectorate population, including the recruitment of Czech workers for work in Germany. Because of this activity, Miroslav Kárný referred to Dennler as the "main organizer of the 'total work effort' of the Czechs". In particular, from 1942 onwards he implemented the Law on Employment Obligation, which enforced compulsory work obligations.

In the SA, Dennler was promoted to SA Brigade Leader with effect from January 30, 1942. He was also a member of the Association of National Socialist German Lawyers .

In the 1950s, Dennler published a book reminiscent of his time in Bohemia, which was accused of glossing over the conditions in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia until Heydrich's arrival.
