“We must act at last. What else is necessary for this?”
Didn’t you act on it?
KEITEL: No.
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: Then, why...
KEITEL: As a matter of fact...
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: Then why, if you did not act on it, were you asking the Luftwaffe, 4 days later if they had given instructions to the camp at Oberursel? Look at Document D-785, Exhibit GB-318.
THE PRESIDENT: Sir David, it appears to be initialed by the defendant—D-784.
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: My copy is initialed “W”, Warlimont.
THE PRESIDENT: D-784, on the copy I have, is initialed “K” at the top, alongside Warlimont’s note.
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: Oh, yes. I am sorry, My Lord. The fault is entirely mine. My Lord is quite right.
