Betr.: Government Force in Prague. Eing.: - 8.DEZ.1941 Introduction: Without. Tgb. No.: Below, statements about the conditions of the government force in Prague, which come from one of their officers, are reproduced with the request for information: Life with the force is pleasant and comradely. In the officer's corps, ebenssalls had an intimate camo- bility and also relations with the German Wehrmacht were very intimate. This was the merit of General Friderici, who had gained a certain respect within the government force and who would never be forgotten, since he had always been generous and had even left all Le- gionären in service. A frequent topic of discussion is the change in the office of the Reichsprotector. It is further told that there are two currents in the German Wehrmacht and a part of the officers opposed the war with the Soviet Union, because they fear its futility; one could not come up against this mass of people despite the successes. Although the German Wehrmacht is already standing in front of Moscow, these officer circles consider the situation to be unfavorable. This group of officers is also to be continued by w.w. St.πF=/41
