Re: Using Ultra to research the Luftwaffe

Hi Everyone,

as a side note, DEFE 3/573 contains are series of signals that were NOT generally telexed to commands (instead they were forwarded to specific individuals) and not transcribed into the main volumes of HW 5.

This was mainly because of the increased sensitivity of the material. Although not strictly relevant to the Luftwaffe, these signals do relate to reports of crashed Allied aircraft where personnel names were mentioned and to PoW matters in general (for example, reports concerning the mass migration of PoWs in the last months of the war).

Has anyone seen a file in the HW series that could be the "HW 5' equivalent of this DEFE 3 microfilm?

Cheers

Rod
