Wolf Sturm (1943)

Wolf Sturm (born April 17, 1921 in Chemnitz , † February 16, 2013 in Perleberg ) was a German occupational physician.

Life

As a scion of a corps student family and a descendant of Julius Sturm and Heinrich Sturm , Wolf Sturm attended the Chemnitiense grammar school . After graduating from high school at Easter 1939, he was in the Reich Labor Service on the Siegfried Line . A few weeks after the attack on Poland began , he was released and sent to the University of Leipzig to study medicine . He reported to the comradeship “Margrave of Meissen” , which the Senior Citizens' Convention in Leipzig had founded in 1937.

Student and soldier

The medical faculty was well staffed with well-known professors , but in the first “war trimester ” it was so overcrowded that Sturm studied the 1st trimester 1940 at the University of Graz and the 2nd and 3rd trimester at the University of Rostock . Since there was no SC comradeship there, Sturm joined a comradeship that was close to the country teams . He took over the office of the local student leader and tried to lead the four Rostock comradeships based on the Leipzig model in a corporate student direction. That was not hidden from the security service of the Reichsführer SS ; the Gaustudentenführer von Mecklenburg left it at a strict reprimand. Sturm exmatriculated immediately after the physics and signed up for the army (Wehrmacht) .

On February 1, 1941 his basic training began with a cavalry unit of the 44th Infantry Division in Vienna . From 1942 in the medical service , he was used in Poland, France and Belgium. To finish his studies, he was assigned to the student company in Leipzig from the winter semester 1942/43 . From the corp student core of the "Marquisate" was now there on June 22, 1942, the Corps Misnia IV emerged. In the winter semester of 1942/43, the Leipzig student leadership deposed the comradeship leader Hans-Joachim Funfack and forbade him to enter the corp house in Lusatia Leipzig . Tried and tested in the “cultural office” of the Leipzig student leadership, Sturm was appointed as Funfack's successor. Instead of bringing the comradeship back on the course of the National Socialist German Student Union as ordered, he pushed forward the internal consolidation of the corps as a fox major and senior . On his charge he fought a scale against Hermann Rahe . On May 29, 1943 he became the Lusatia corps bow bearer. In June 1944 he took part in the bold attempt to reconstitute the Kösener Seniors Convents Association . Sturm passed an emergency exam in February 1945 and joined a fighting alarm unit as an under- field doctor in the reserve and battalion doctor. When the Wehrmacht surrendered , he escaped captivity .

post war period

After the University of Leipzig reopened, he was able to complete his studies in autumn 1945 with a proper state examination. On October 26, 1945 he received his doctorate as Dr. med. Since his corps could not continue to exist in the Soviet occupation zone , the corps boys' convent decided on December 7, 1946 to move to the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität . Just a week later, Misnia in Erlangen was the first corps to start active operations in the post-war period. When Lusatia succeeded her on December 3, 1949, Sturm and all the other Meißner who had fought received the Lausitzerband.

doctor

Sturm stayed in his native Saxony and became an internist (1952) and pulmonologist (1957). In his PhD B at the Academy for Medical Training in the GDR , he turned to industrial hygiene . With over 200 publications and lectures, he became one of the leading occupational physicians in the German Democratic Republic . Since he was not a member of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany , he was not given a professorship .

He worked full-time in the inspection for industrial hygiene in the district of Magdeburg . Part-time he sat on the Council for Social Security, among other things . When he reached the age limit , he retired in 1986.

turn

After reunification , it was established in an official rehabilitation procedure that Sturm had been obviously discriminated against in the GDR because his academic achievements were not recognized . In an act of reparation for the Minister of Science and Research awarded him the country Saxony-Anhalt on 6 October 1993 the title of honorary professor .

Sturm had not been able to take part in Lusatia's life in West Berlin since the Berlin Wall was built ; but he took care of the cohesion of the Lusatians who remained in the GDR and came regularly to the meetings at the Leipzig trade fair and in East Berlin . From 1990 he accompanied the reconstruction of the corps in Leipzig. In 1999 he reported on his family and the Chemnitz high school.
