The Head of Department V Prague, 27 July 1943. - No. 1582/43 - Confidential! Mr. S t a t s e s e k r e t ä r . W ORR y-Hauptsturmführer L. Schmidt was yesterday afternoon on my behalf with the Wehrmacht authorised representative and spoke there with Lieutenant Colonel Seim about the convocation of the head director L i n h a r d t . He learned that the arms inspection in Prague, which was primarily responsible for the arms works in Strakonitz, had expressly released Dr. Linhardt. He was also informed that, just in the last few days, a new order had been issued to set the most stringent standards for Uk positions. M.E. was able to do so because of the non-convocation of Dr. This is all the less so since the defence centre in Prague and the SD section in Prague do not believe that they have any reason to demand that the other German chief director of the Arms Works in Strakonitz Uhl change his role as defence officer. 1 .e 8ts10 St...\G-24/43
