SAUCKEL: Do you mean the labor service of Reichsarbeitsführer Hierl?
DR. SERVATIUS: Yes.
SAUCKEL: That I cannot say; that was a German military organization for training for manual work.
DR. SERVATIUS: Were workers taken for the Armed Forces?
SAUCKEL: Workers were employed for local urgent work, of course, by army groups, by construction and fortification battalions, and so on, which I neither knew about nor was in a position to control. Road building...
DR. SERVATIUS: How about the Reichsbahn?
SAUCKEL: The Reichsbahn repaired its tracks itself and recruited or hired the workers for its requirements whenever it needed them.
DR. SERVATIUS: These offices were not under your supervision?
SAUCKEL: No.
DR. SERVATIUS: Did they carry out your instructions or were they required to carry them out?
