Introduction: There: St.S. VIII A - 32/43 g secret of 13.7.1943. The investigations conducted so far showed that D i r m a n is in a philosophical and political view impeccable. He is also regarded as an extremely just superior, who, despite his particular rigour, enjoys great popularity among his subordinates. In general, he continues to impress his sharp rejection of the so-called "Neudeutsche", who today believed to be able to play a special role. However, after an observation made in a single case, Diermann seemed to have a too positive attitude towards the Czechs. At a meeting of district heads in Prague at the end of last year, he said that he had come to Bohemia and Moravia with certain reservations, but had now been taught a better one and had to make the statement that not only the Germans but also the Czechs had to work well together. The driver Diermanns, a former Czech gendarmerie, is a relative of the senior director of the Prague City Insurance Institute, Dr. P eli kan. About the ongoing further investigation follows after arrival of their result follow-up report.
