STENOGRAPHIC MINUTES OF THE JAEGERSTAB CONFERENCE

PRESIDED OVER BY HAUPTDIENSTLEITER

SAUR, LATER ON PRESIDED OVER BY FIELD

MARSHAL MILCH, ON WEDNESDAY, 12 APRIL

1944, 10 O’CLOCK IN THE REICH AIR MINISTRY


Saur: Please tell this to Schmelter. We are in an incredible situation as a result of lack of manpower. Here we are in the middle of the month already, and the 10,000 people allocated to us according to red slips have not arrived yet. A way must be found to assure priority for red-slip matters over all other allocations. Tell Herr Schmelter to contact Gauleiter Sauckel today. Going further than that, the discontinuation, transfer, or concentration of every other type of production must be brought about by us at once.

Schaaf: The 4,000 people from Kahla!
