[118] Kammler was one of the leading officials of the Economic Administrative Main Office of the SS [Wirtschafts-Verwaltungshauptamt—WVHA]. See case of United States vs. Oswald Pohl, et al., (Vol. V), concerning the WVHA which administered the utilization of concentration camp labor.
[119] Document was Speer Exhibit 34 in Trial before International Military Tribunal. See Trial of the Major War Criminals, vol. XVI, p. 589, Nuremberg, 1947.
[120] Defense Counsel, Dr. Bergold, explained (Tr. p. 580): “This proves that the Fuehrer himself ordered these large construction works, the execution of which is charged to the defendant.
Although I mentioned before that the Jaegerstab was of the opinion that it could only build one factory, the order was given by Hitler to build six. That was an impossible number. He delegated this duty to Mr. Dorsch. That man had his orders from the Fuehrer and not from the Jaegerstab, which, of course, was no longer responsible for his activities.”
[121] Portions of this document were introduced by the prosecution as Prosecution Exhibit 75. See pp. 544-45.
[122] Dr. Bergold stated (Tr. p. 567): “I introduce this in order to show that the Jaegerstab meetings not always prove who was there at a certain given time and those meetings changed so that as far as the defendant Milch is mentioned, this does not prove he was there all of the time.”
[123] Dr. Bergold explained (Tr. p. 568): “There was introduced by the prosecution and also presented an exhibit from this Jaegerstab conference where the term ‘construction company’ was mentioned in such a way. Those were companies of concentration camp inmates. This explains the term ‘construction company’ clearly.”
[124] Other portions of this document were introduced by the prosecution as Prosecution Exhibit 75. See pp. 545-46.
