Betr.: Einsatz des Pflegungshilfszugs Böhmen/Mähren I After a report of the auxiliary train commander, the Pflegeshilfschlag, which is ready for use for about 8 days in Frankstadt, has not been used so far, so that the entire train personnel remained jobless. From the staff of the officer responsible for the construction of the station, the train commander was meant to have started the prepared cooking facilities for the ski jumpers so far that the train would be eligible for a maximum daily aid of approx. 5oo portions. For this reason the train comman- dant sent back part of the train personnel, while the train initially remained in Frankstadt. During a telephone consultation with Oberlandrat Eckholt, I found that the expert for the food sector judges the possibilities of feeding in the ski areas much more optimistic than Oberland Rat Eckholth himself. Mr EckholT believes that he cannot get along without the aid train during the entire duration of the ski jumping operation. The use of the train was demanded in the past week, but only for the implementation of the difficulties in the provision of the ski jumpers during the first 5-6 days. Since the selection of train staff, especially women, is expected to be limited to a maximum of 5-6 days, it will be necessary to use another staff if the aid train is to remain in the ski area for a longer period of time. As a precaution, I have ordered that additional assistants be immediately trained as kitchen staff, so that the personnel in operation can be replaced at shorter intervals. If St.M.114-1-h/45
