Q. Do you perhaps know whether you discussed this matter with Himmler and then waited for his orders?
A. I cannot say that. I assume that I put the teletype message among his mail and then received his instructions along with all the rest of his orders.
Q. Now, I want to discuss NO-402, Prosecution Exhibit 66. This is a letter to the German Research Institute for Aviation. This letter accompanies a long report, the subject of which is rescuing pilots from high altitudes. Do you have that report now in front of you?
A. Yes.
Q. Did you work on this report or at least give a cursory glance at it?
A. I certainly did not work on it, and I did not even give it a cursory glance, first of all because it is a medical report, and secondly, because it is much too long.
