75 - 2. If this had not been done, the entire material would have already been thrown out in the locations of the individual Czechoslovak commandos and could not have been put into order again. At least it was achieved that this immensely extensive writing material could actually be properly recorded and put into usable order. These Czech beants are already unobstructed and as closely as possible monitored by the German officials of the military office. They currently amount to 25% of the total number of officials. Of course, it is not entirely impossible, even in this control, that the material found in the military department is evaluated for illegal acts. To date, however, no case of this kind has yet arisen; on the contrary, it seems that the Czech employees of the military department regard their service as a service which they do not want to put at risk in any way, and have so far made the greatest effort to comply with their duties in the most precise and loyal manner. With regard to the requests by German officers for the re-appropriation of shortened or cancelled supplies, for the abolition of their degradation and reparation of their disciplining, there is no immediate danger because the affairs of these persons are concerned by the supply office I in Vienna, the Wehrmacht authorised representative in Prague and the Weirbezirks - Kommandos. According to the reduction in incoming requests, the staff of the military department is constantly reduced and Czech employees are dismissed. Gradually they are constantly replaced by suitable officers of German ethnicity, altogether 35 officers so far, so that finally what always presides for me as a final goal will occur, namely: to occupy the whole military office gradually with suitable German people.
