Friedrich Weber (general)

French was allowed to remain in use only in primary and secondary schools in municipalities definitely considered Francophone, such as Château-Salins and the surrounding arrondissement, as well and in their local administration.

After graduating from high school, he studied law at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich.

[1] As an officer he fought on the Western Front in the battles of Verdun and Reims, on the Aisne, near Artois and Ypres.

[1] When his corps was suspended during the Nazi era, he became a member of the old comradeship "von der Pfordten" founded on June 19, 1938.

The northern horn, with most of the tanks, was to advance on the route from Mateur from the north-east, to capture Béja 40 km (25 mi) west of Medjez.

Shortly before the Afrikakorps surrendered in April 1943, he was supposed to inform Hitler of the grievances in Africa, but was turned away by Field Marshal Keitel and dismissed as commander.

On January 10, 1944, he succeeded General of the Artillery Heinrich Meyer-Bürdorf until the end of October 1944 as commander of the 131st Infantry Division that was to hold a line at Vitebsk.

On July 1, 1944, Weber was promoted to Generalleutenant (lieutenant general)[9] and from December 20, 1944, appointed commander of the Festung Division "Warsaw", created on 12 January 1945.

[10] Contrary to a no longer executed Führer decree to keep the enclosed fortress, he led his men back to the German main battle line, taking all the wounded with them and after breaking through the front, which was already 60 kilometers away.

For abandoning the Polish capital, Weber was relieved of command on January 25, 1945[9] and formally transferred to the Führerreserve.
