In this strength the recovery company of about 5oð heads is included and so it belongs with the Btl. a large percentage of gene transmitters. Under announcement of the order of the 4 - location command of 2. 7. 41 on. Purchase of food subject to a card and supplies subject to registration in the Protectorate, I have allowed the companies, in the sense of caring care, in particular of those men who have returned from the front, in some cases seriously wounded, in any case in need of care, to obtain additional food, as far as the procurement is possible within the framework of the existing legal orders. With regard to the above, the investigation has shown that all the pigs purchased were purchased and properly paid within the framework of the statutory provisions. By a confirmation in the annex of the mayor's office Gross Herrendorf of 26. 11. 41, it is permitted by law to acquire young pigs under 60 kg in the free trade. It was also noted that all young pigs were not slaughtered but were used for rearing and breeding and were still in the company's possession alive. Finally, I would like to say that it is customary in the barracks management to feed the abundant kitchen waste in a pig farm, as this provides a practically valuable supplement to the general food situation.
