Note 137 — B. Medical Experiments

Reading edition

When this document was introduced, Dr. Bergold made the following statement (Tr. p. 457): “Please let me have the photostatic copy of the original, so that I can make a statement.

“I merely wanted to find out on the copy, whether there was any ‘receiving’ mark. Later on, in the course of the introduction of evidence, I shall prove that all letters which are not signed with a red pencil and do not carry the initials ‘Mi’ were never seen by the defendant Milch but were forwarded directly. This letter does not show the initials ‘Mi’.

(Stepping forward and showing the Tribunal the document) “May it please the Tribunal: Milch, whenever he received the letter, added his initials ‘Mi’; at all times, when Milch received a document, he indicated the receipt with a date; he initialed with a date. These letters, which do not show the initials, were received by his office but were not shown to him. At a later date, I can prove this. I just wanted, at this time, to call the Court’s attention to it.”
