Scope and Content
Order from the Führer des SS Oberabschnittes österreich, Vienna, to all SS units referring to an order of Gauleiter Buerckel that all section leaders were to be responsible for preventing actions by the SS against Jews and that if measures have to be taken against Jews these would be carried out by the authorities and the Gestapo.
It bears a stamp (in French) of the U.S. 3rd Army, which suggests it became a captured document probably during the occupation of Austria by the allies at the end of the war.
