Note:
In Denmark there was yet one more sector commander: Danish Westcoast (Bulbjerg to the Dano-German Border). This sector was not subordinated to Marinebefehlshaber, but to Küstenbefehlshaber Deutsche Bucht. „Sector Danish Westcoast“ was not subordinated to Marinebefehlshaber Dänemark until November 1940.
Sector East-Jütland was normally designated North-Jutland.
