That is all.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: I would like to put another question to you on the subject of the Commando Order.
Did the Naval Operations Staff have any part in introducing this order?
WAGNER: No, no part at all.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: Did you, did the Naval Operations Staff have the possibility, either before or during the drafting of the order, of investigating the correctness of the particulars mentioned in Paragraph 1 of the order?
WAGNER: No, such a possibility did not exist.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: The treatment of a man who had attacked the Tirpitz with a two-man torpedo in October 1942 has just been discussed here. Did you know that a year later, in the autumn of 1943, there was a renewed attack on the Tirpitz with two-man torpedoes, and that the British sailors who were captured at that time were treated in accordance with the Geneva Convention by the Navy, who had captured them?
WAGNER: The second attack on the Tirpitz is known to me. I do not remember the treatment of the prisoners.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: You mentioned that the Naval Operations Staff possibly received reports on the statements made by men of Commando units. From what aspect did those reports interest the Naval Operations Staff? Did operational questions interest you, or the personal fate of these people?
WAGNER: Naturally we were interested in the tactical and operational problems so that we could gather experiences and draw our conclusions from them.
