English Translation

He still had so much time to visit a spa in the mountains. In order not to have to impose restrictions on food and to be able to arrange the last days in the country as pleasantly as possible, he briefly resolutely falsified his holiday permit, which did not contain any registration that he had been accepted with food stamps for the time of his original permit. He entered, contrary to the facts, a note stating that he had not received any stamps, then presented the holiday certificate to a competent body and received food cards a second time. His act was soon discovered and atoned for, among other things, by an honorary sentence. If it was also frivolousness and youthful immaturity and inconsideration that had led him to it, his course of action was not only a serious violation of the applicable criminal laws, but also a no less gross misconception of the world's law. Every man, especially every 4-leader, has to follow the provisions of the war economy, which ensure a fair distribution of the vital goods and consumables and thus create an important advance for the final victory, exemplary. A serious breach of duty. For a battery of weapons 7ł was set up in an indoor swimming pool as a service. Once in the bathroom, G. had the battery divided into swimmers and non-swimmers and forbade anyone, whether swimmer or non- swimmer, to be forced to jump from the three-meter-high diving board. He did not divide lifeguards. Nor did he stay in the bath during the whole swimming service, but moved prematurely. Contrary to his prohibition, a guide commissioned by his direction allowed the swimmers to spew from the three-meter springboard into the water. When the battery left the bath, one of the men, a swimmer, was missed. He was found drowning on the bottom of the swimming pool shortly afterwards. As he had died, especially if jumping, could not be determined with certainty. For this serious accident the leader G. was brought to the court for responsibility and also punished. He has not supervised the execution of his order that no one should be forced to jump from the springboard, nor was he concerned about the division of lifeguards. The duty of a leader to care for the men under his authority is a comprehensive one. It refers to every kind of service, not only to the service of arms. In particular, men's lives must not be seen lightly at stake. 89
