She was the Gebietsmädelführerin of Gebiet Westmark from 1942 to 1945. I have an incomplete note here suggesting that she was replaced in February 1945. Does anyone know the name of her successor?
 

Gebietsmädelführerin Carola Limbach is mentioned in "Faschismus - Tatsachen über die Diktaturen",
published 4. November 1942 by the Iternationale Transportarbeiter-Föderation

Thanks Henrik. That's an interesting document. I have her taking command of Gebiet Westmark in that year and thought that she would still have been in post at the end of the war. However, an incomplete newspaper entry seems to be saying that she was succeeded by someone in Feb 1945. Difficult to find much about her. The last time I see her definitely still in post in a primary document is in March 1944.
 
Google translation:

Female workers share rations

(ITF) Sweets and cigarettes are very rationed in Germany,
and Russian, Polish, Jewish workers, and in some districts apparently also workers from Western Europe, do not receive these delicacies. But in factories, German female workers share these rations with foreign colleagues. The Nazi authorities are furious about this. For example, Carola Limbach, the regional leader of the Nazi girls' organization, railed in Ludwigshafen at the end of September: “German girls in some factories have befriended foreign women employed there and have given them cigarettes and sweets. This is incompatible with the national dignity of German women,” the Nazi secretary declared.
