All fine original examples. Of course, since they come from the
Berlin Document Center and were stolen there from the German
govnt in the 80ies by some militaria dealer crooks.Comment

Hi Spencer,Originally posted by Spencer View Post
These docs were for internal use only and were never given to any of the individuals
concerned. They went into the personnel files and into archives, from where they were
later stolen.
I think there is some info on the thefts on the web. Huesken was involved, as well as others,
also from the U.S.

Here a small article about stolen documents:
http://articles.latimes.com/1989-01-..._1_west-berlin
January 03, 1989<!-- Module ends: article-byline-->
<!-- Module starts: a-body-first-para (ArticleText) -->A dealer, on trial for allegedly trading in thousands of stolen Nazi-era documents from U.S.-run archives, has handed over nearly 800 of the documents, the West German Justice Ministry said. Andre Huesken, a Hamburg dealer in military memorabilia, turned the material over to West Berlin court officials. A ministry spokeswoman said she did not know details of the contents. Huesken is charged with trading in goods stolen from the Nazi Document Center in West Berlin. He has been on trial since Dec. 5 with three other defendants. The Nazi Document Center, housing about 30 million files, is said to have the world's largest collection of Nazi records.
Stolen between 1983 - 1987 about 30.000 Akten and documents:
