military economy leader

Starting in 1935, the Wehrmacht's War Economy Staff (Wehrwirtschaftsstab) and the Reich Ministry of Economics designated as "military economy leaders" (Wehrwirtschaftsführer) those industrialists and managers who were especially important to the National Socialist state. Among other things, they were relieved of the obligation to serve in the Wehrmacht during World War II.
