Each barrack block constitutes in itself a Company of Prisoners
which is under the command of an SS NCO as their Coy Officer; he
will appoint from among the barrack inmates one prisoner-Sgt and
the requisite number of Corporals.
Prisoner-Sgt and Cpls are appointed merely to keep order
within their 'compound.. 'They receive their orders from the Coy
Officer and are made responsible for enforcing these orders in
all circumstances; they have strict orders to report to the Coy
Officer all . prisoners who do not submit tO the prison discipline.

the Commander of the Protective Custody Camp or by his deputy..
