WAGNER: If you take the two together, then in my opinion it is certain; I do not think there is any doubt about it.
DR. SIEMERS: Will you then look at the following sentence?
Mr. President, that is under Figure 2, the last sentence of the first paragraph. I quote:
“It was possible to take only the civilian-clothed British sailor Robert Paul Evans”—born on such and such a date—“into arrest. The others escaped into Sweden.”
Therefore, I think we may assume with certainty that Evans was not recognizable as a soldier.
WAGNER: Yes, no doubt.
DR. SIEMERS: Then, will you look at the following sentence. There it says—I quote:
“Evans had a pistol holster used for carrying weapons under the arm-pit, and he had a knuckle duster.”
SIR DAVID MAXWELL-FYFE: My Lord, it says nothing about civilian clothes in the English copy. I do not want to make a bad point, but it is not in my copy.
THE PRESIDENT: I am afraid I do not have the document before me.
