Technical
Emergency Corps [Technische Nothilfe (TENO or TN)]
The
Technical Emergency Corps (TENO) was formed on September
30, 1919, to assist the German population during times of
crisis and disaster resulting from natural catastrophies.
It functioned under the pre-Nazi Weimar Republic as a society
of technical volunteers who were called to duty in the event
of a public disaster. The Corps provided essential services
during emergencies with its personnel being highly trained
in fire fighting, decontamination, etc. TENO men were distributed
throughout the cities, industrial centers, and major traffic
hubs for the repair and maintainence of public utilities.
The Nazis realized the potential value of the TENO and reorganized
the Corps in 1939 as one of the main party formations under
the auspices of the German Police. The commander of the
TENO prior to World War II was SS Gruppenfuehrer
Schmelcher. Subsequently, he was placed in charge of technical
affairs of the SS and was succeeded by SS Gruppenfuehrer
Weinreich. The services of the Corps were required extensively
after the outbreak of the war in army rear areas and occupied
territories, thus freeing army engineers and personnel for
other tasks. During the conduct of the war the TENO became
an almost integral part of the Waffen SS. For more
