Felix Czernin — Diary March 26 – May 6, 1945
English Translation
- 4 - 02 April Must snort because of every dirt, soap, comb, knife, all have something with me, I nothing. Many get packers, I don't. Whether you know outside where I am? Vienna is obviously in dissolving, so I do not expect with the help of outside. Again some men to parole.Comp. It seems that conviction is no longer a matter of value in cases not very serious, but of using everything as much as possible. Today I was called. The Oblt. informs me that my act is not from the Gestapo (which seems to be 'unreadable') and that they have no details about my misdeeds. They want to give me to the Airfield Court. Don't want me to. He tells me that, "so that I don't think I've been forgotten!" I think it is a huge luck that I am here and not at Gestapo! Riha is released to the troop. The nice Moissl is a good speech. Russians allegedly in Baden. April 03 No change in the situation. Optimism, as again some are released. Files are burned. You start packing! April 04 Weinhandel goes, Dr.Roth goes, Moissl goes. One is astonished. Suddenly mood swing, since 5 death sentences. Weinberger sweats again cold.
