Germanische Leitstelle
During World War II, Germanische Leitstelle was a department of the SS-Hauptamt under the command of Obergruppenführer Gottlob Berger. It oversaw the recruitment and propaganda offices for the Waffen SS in Oslo, Copenhagen, Brussels and The Hague.
The Germanische Leitstelle in Norway
The Oslo office was established in 1941 and led by Karl Leib, the son-in-law of Gottlob Berger. It was headquartered in Drammensveien 99 until 1943, when it moved to Colbjørnsens gate 1.
The Germanische Leitstelle published the Germanic Messenger (Germansk Budstikke) and SS-Heftet, which was the Norwegian edition of SS-Leitheft. It was also tasked with coordinating the scientific work of the SS, and hosted the Ahnenerbe mission in Norway, led by Hans Schwalm.[1]

gollark: Humans can define our own values, and mine don't include "maximize quantity of humans at all costs".
gollark: > maximizing the number of your species is always good"Good" how? Good isn't objective.
gollark: But I think this is missing the major point that what's "good" in terms of maximizing the amount of humans or something (in the short term, anyway) is *not* necessarily good for literally any other values whatsoever.
