English Translation
-2- Nights from 25./26., 27./28., 29./30. April 1942 were used for the removal of numerous parachute agents. In order to divert from these jumps a number of sham bombs were carried out near Pilsen and other places, which were not at the finish despite contagious directional fires and thus good visualisation of the Skoda plants. Because of these enemy arrivals, in particular the second, search actions were initiated in the rooms where an exit could be assumed by agents. The search operation in the area of Beraun, Rakonitz led on 30.4.1942 by reference of a Czech farmer at Pürglitz a.d. Beraun to the recording of a suitcase with transmitters, which was superficially buried and obviously from parachute agents. The Czech gendarmerie, which carried out this search operation under German leadership, was left for observation at the site of the discovery and was in a firefight with two persons who wanted to pick up the suitcase in the evening, killing one Czech gen Darmerie officer, another seriously injured and a third slightly injured, while one of the affected persons was killed. In the meantime, the victim was identified as a parachute agent who had already jumped off Göding in Moravia on 27.3.42. The immediately inserted Gross search action after the second person - in which weapon #, Wehrmacht, government force and Czech police were deployed - went without result. On the other hand, seven complete parachute equipment and two load parachutes, a steel tube (about 2 m x 50 cm), rucksacks with food and more have been found; the explosives found can be attached to the object to be blown up by magnetic force and are of the same kind as those recorded in Norway and Holland.
