SHORTHAND TRANSCRIPT OF THE GL-CONFERENCE
PRESIDED OVER BY THE STATE SECRETARY, FIELD
MARSHAL MILCH ON WEDNESDAY, 27 MAY 1942,
9 A.M. IN THE REICH AIR MINISTRY
Von Gablenz: Yesterday, the first[[135]] has exploded in France, at the Arade plant, an explosive, a float, but no damage has been done.
Field Marshal Milch: What measures have been taken in consequence?—I want to have a report on what has been done. How many people have been shot and how many hanged? If that guy cannot be found today, fifty men should be selected and if I were you I would hang three or four of them whether they are guilty or not. It is the only way!
(Mahnke hands another letter to the Field Marshal.)
What do you think of that man?
