  Reichsmarschall - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Reichsmarschall (Reich Marshal in English) was the highest rank in the German Army during World War II.
Reichsmarschall, however, was a rank that had been made long before World War II.
Holding the title of Reichsmarschall was not as prestigious or rare back then than it was during World War II.

 The World at War: Herman Goering
Reichsmarschall (Marshal of the Empire) Hermann Goering had been an ace fighter pilot (with 22 kills) in the "Great War" succeeding to the command of Manfred von Richthofen's fighter squadron, the famous "Flying Circus" upon the death of the "Red Baron".
He also supervised the reorganization of the German economy, which both prepared it for war and created the prosperity that the Nazis needed to satisfy most of the German public.
Recognizing these achievements Hitler named Goering to be his successor (1939) and appointed him Reichsmarschall (Marshal of the Empire), in 1940.

The original uniform of the Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring shown in the Luftwaffe-Museum in Berlin.
The rank of Reichsmarschall was created at the time of the Holy Roman Empire, before the twelfth century.
In that time, holding the title of Reichsmarschall was neither unique nor as prestigious as it was during World War II.

Reichsmarschall Goering was very upset about this last report because he condemned the deed in itself, and, moreover, he feared reprisals for his own airmen.
To support their charges against Reichsmarschall Goering, the prosecution invokes first of all a protocol of 19th May, 1944 (L. 166) concerning the so-called "Hunting Conference" which was held on the 15th and 16th May, under the direction of the defendant.
Furthermore, Reichsmarschall Goering, as can be clearly seen from the letter of 19th June, 1944, maintained the opinion that in every instance he considered legal procedures against terror flyers as definitely necessary.

After the report of the Reichsmarschall, the Fuehrer himself issued an order that no further unauthorised actions should take place, that the action was over, and if any guilty people were still found they would be brought before the ordinary courts, which would decide whether or not they should be proceeded against.
Had the Reichsmarschall known anything about it, he would certainly have told me or those who were with him.
The Reichsmarschall solved this problem satisfactorily, and this led the Fuehrer to ask him for suggestions as to how the entire German economy could be made proof against crises.

The Reichsmarschall emphasized that Koch should be given the Baltic area because he is well acquainted with it, or one should give Koch the Ukraine because he is the personality with the strongest initiative and the best preparatory training.
The Führer said to the Reichsmarschall and the Field Marshal that he has always stressed that the Police Regiments should be equipped with tanks; for the operations of the Police in the new Eastern Territories with a corresponding number of tanks, a Police Regiment can accomplish a good deal.
The Führer, the Reichsmarschall etc., reiterate that Himmler was to have no greater areas of competence than he had in Germany but his jurisdiction here was absolutely necessary.

He said further that if the Reichsmarschall had actually wanted to find out the name of this Luftwaffe officer, he could easily have done so.
Answer: Notwithstanding occasional expressions of displeasure, the attitude of the Reichsmarschall was always correct and chivalrous, which was in line with the Air Force tradition which he learned in the First World War and to which he frequently referred.
These words, however, were soon forgotten and I do not know of a single case where the Reichsmarschall followed up these spontaneous utterances by incorrect or harsh measures or orders against members of foreign air forces.

 Hermann Göring - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1938, he became the first Luftwaffe Field Marshal (Generalfeldmarschall) and by a decree on 19 June 1940, Hitler appointed Göring his formal successor and promoted him to the rank of Reichsmarschall, the highest military rank of the Greater German Reich.
Reichsmarschall was a special rank intended for Göring and which made him senior to all Army and Air Force Field Marshals.
When Göring had been promoted to the unique rank of "Reichsmarschall" on July 19, 1940, he at once decided to choose a personal standard for himself.

As their cities were pummeled to rubble during the war, even the Germans took to contemptuously referring to the head of the Luftwaffe as Der Dicke (the fat one).
His comical words, actions and unique fashion sense aside, it should be remembered that Göring was a bona fide war hero who received the coveted Orden Pour le Merite during World War I and was a figure of high importance in the Nazi hierarchy.
Expecting to be treated as the emissary of a defeated people, the Reichsmarschall was shocked when his medals and marshal's baton were taken away and he was confined in Prisoner of War Camp No. 32, known to its inmates as the "Ashcan."

 Bf-109E
Negotiations with Yugoslavia for the supply of Bf –109 fighters to the Yugoslav Royal Air Force, or “Jugoslovensko kraljevsko ratno vazduhoplovstvo” (JKRV), in fact began as early as January 1938, when Yugoslav Premier Stojadinovic visited Germany with the primary purpose of acquiring modern weapons.
The Yugoslav military attache in Berlin had been highly impressed by the capabilities of the Bf –109 and when he and Premier Stojadinovic met Reichsmarschall Goring to discuss planned Yugoslav weapon procurement, several dozen of Bf –109s were a priority item on the list.
Goring did his best to dissuade the Yugoslav s from persisting in their demand for the Messersmith fighter, commenting: there is too much with which your pilots are unfamiliar in this new aircraft.
