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
