German terminology[edit]

@Boczi and Rrostrom: Original version of the article used "Area Headquarters (Wehrersatzbezirk Hauptquartier) and Sub-area headquarters (Wehrbezirk Hauptquartier)", which may have been an incomplete translation where descriptive terms have been used as official titles. A gsearch [1] indicates that the headquarters of a Wehrersatzbezirk was a Wehrersatzinspektion under a Wehrersatzinspektor; the headquarters of a Wehrbezirk was a Wehrbezirkskommando under a Wehrbezirkskommandeur; and the headquarters of a Wehrmeldebezirk was a Wehrmeldeamt under a Wehrbezirksoffizier (eg [2],[3], etc). The change to "Bereich Hauptsitze ("Area headquarters"), which controlled Unterregion Hauptsitze ("Sub-region Headquarters")" was made in this edit and appears have literally translated the terms. ^~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~ 04:36, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Too narrow[edit]

The system of "Wehrkreise" existed some years before World War II. In fact, it was introduced after World War I, by the time Reichswehr was built. --2001:A61:2B86:9801:35FC:E4A8:CC27:2956 (talk) 07:38, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
