- Given the fact that Germar Scheerer is generally
known by his original name Germar Rudolf, and given the fact that his
affidavit relies heavily if not totally on work he has done and published
under the name Rudolf, I will refer to the author of this affidavit
as Rudolf.

Bischoff einspringen musste, da dieser damals in Berlin war. Aus Punkt
2./ des Aktenvermerk ersieht man deutlich, das der Chef damals in Berlin
war. Ich habe ihn damals angerufen, und zwar am 21.8.1942 und habe anschliessend
den Aktenvermerk gemacht. Zu dem Wort "Badeanstalten für Sonderaktionen"
befragt gebe ich an, da mir damals bekannt war, daß es sich hierbei
um Vergasungsume handelt." Testimony Fritz Ertl, January 21, 1972, Republic

- "Dann habe ich mit einem Angehrigen der politischen
Abteilung der im Privatberuf Richter war, gesprochen. Er hat mir dann
einiges erzählt. Normalerweise hat man sich im Dienst nich zu
sprechen getraut, da man befürchten musste, dafür bestraft
zu werden. Ich kann mich erinneren, wie die Frau von Bischoff einem
Offizier anzeigt, der Goebbels den Scherznamen "Jupp" gab. Dieser Richter
hat mich aufgeklärt. Das muss im Sommer 1942 gewesen sein und
ich kann mich erinnern, dass er sich enorm adfällig geäussert
hat. Er war aus Hamburg unst ist später gefallen. Auschwitz,
so erzählte er, sei ein Vernichtungslager. Viele Leute würden
erschossen, also auch vor Standgerichte gestellt werden. Er hatte dann
mit der Judenfrage auch angedeutet, dass grssere Vernichtungen kommen
würden. Er gab mich den Rat, ich solle schauen, dass ich bald
wegkäme. Er selbst ist dann später weggekommen und in
Russland gefallen. Diese Aussprache war für mich ein Alarmsignal,
ich war entsetzt und empört. Dieses Gespräch fällt
in die Zeit in der die Krematorien beantragt wurden. Ich habe das zum
Anlass genommen, um meine Versetzung anzusuchen. Bischoff hat mich angeschrien
und mir erklärt, dass eine Versetzung nich in Frage kommt."

- "Vorhalt der Onr. 195, so. 109, Schreiben
an das Wirtschafts-Verwaltungs Hauptamt, vom 13.10.1942 durch den Vors.
gibt der Angekl. Ertl an: Dieses Schreiben ist von Bischoff unterschrieben.
Das Diktatzeichen ist Janisch. Ich selbst habe dieses Schreiben, so
lange ich in Auschwitz war, nie gesehen. Ich habe nur jene Briefe geschreiben,
die mir zugeteilt wurden. Bezüglich Punkt 3.) dieses Schreibens,
Krematoriumneubau wurde in Juli 1942 begonnen. Diese Neubau war notwendig
auf grund der Sonderaktionen. Mir selbst ist doch schon im Frühjahr
1942, und zwar ca. im März 1942 bekanntgeworden, was sich in
Auschwitz tut und um was es bei den Sonderaktionen gegangen ist." Ibid.,
124.
- "Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war ich nicht mehr in
Auschwitz. Im Personalakt steht, daß ich am 25.1.1943 aus Auschwitz
weggekommen bin. Ich habe dieses Schreiben nicht mehr bekommen. / Es
stehen nur mehr die Namen "Janisch" und "Kirschneck" im Verteiler drauf.
/ In diesem Schreiben wurde schon sehr offen gesprochen, das geht aus
dem Wort "Vergasungskeller" hervor. Das Diktatzeichen is "Bischoff".
Ich kann mir vorstellen, dass er das selbst geschrieben hat. Ich habe
den Auftrag von Bischoff gehabt, daß ich das Wort "Vergasung"
nicht schreiben darf. Ich musste immer umschreiben. / über
Befragen des Vorsitzenden, on Bischoff konkret zum Angeklagten Ertl
gesagt hat, daß er das nicht schreiben darf, oder ist dieser Auftrag
von hüoherer Stelle gekommen? Gibt der Angekl. Ertl an: /
Ich glaube Bischoff hat mich darauf aufmerksam gemacht, daß das
Wort "Vergasen" nicht vorkommen darf. Es ist auch mglich, daß
von höherer Stelle einmal eine Order gekommen ist. Ich kann
mich heute daran nicht mehr erinneren. Nachdem jedoch dieses Wort "Vergasen"
eigentlich immer umschrieben ist, mit "Sonderaktion" oder "Sondermaßnahme"
bin ich der überzeugung, daß dies verlangt worden ist.
Mich wundert, daß Bischoff dieses Wort "Vergasungskeller" selbst
gebraucht hat. Nachdem auch von "oben" imer das Wort "Sonderaktion"
verwendet wurde, habe ich das auch so verwendet. Ich habe diesen terminus
übernommen." Ibid., 125f.

Volumes, vol. 12, 136.
- It seems, however, clear that the many Jewish
forced labour camps in the General Government, which housed in 1943
an average of 200,000 inmates, were not included. These camps were run
by the local SS and Police Leaders (SS- und Polizeiführer) in
the General Government, and did not belong formally to the SS concentration
camp system. There are no records about any Zyklon B shipments to these
camps. See Dieter Pohl, "Die großen Zwangarbeitslager der SS-
und Polizeif¨¨hrer für Juden im Generalgouvernement
1942-1945," in Ulrich Herbert, Karin Orth and Christoph Dieckmann, eds.,

(Berlin: Dietz, 1988); Danuta Czech, Auschwitz Chronicle 1939-1945(New

- The following camps within the TeSta sales
area operated in 1942 and 1943, the years that are under consideration,
Zyklon B homicidal gas chambers: 1. Lublin (Majdanek); 2. Neuengamme;
Sachsenhausen. The three homicidal gas chambers in Lublin (Majdanek)
initially operated on bottled carbon monixide, but were later adapted
to also use Zyklon B. It is assumed that 50,000 people were killed in
these gas chambers, but it is not clear how many were killed with bottled
carbon monoxide, and how many with Zyklon B. In Neuengamme two Zyklon
B gassings took place in the camp prison in 1942, killing a little under
450 people. In Sachsenhausen occasional Zyklon B gassings were introduced
in 1943. These gassings killed probably a couple of thousand people.
See Eugen Kogon, Hermann Langbein and Adelbert Rückerl, Nazi
Mass Murder: A Documentary History of the Use of Poison Gas (New
Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1993), 174ff., 183ff., 193ff..
Holocaust deniers like to invoke the authority of the late Martin Broszat,
director of the Munich Institute for Contemporary History, who in 1960
would have written in the weekly Die Zeit that no gassings would
have taken place in the so-called Altreich. Consequently Neuengamme
and Sachsenhausen could not have operated homicidal gas chambers. For
the record, this is what Broszat actually wrote: "Neither in Dachau,
nor in Bergen-Belsen, nor in Buchenwald were Jews or other inmates gassed."
N.B.: Broszat did not make a statement about either Neuengamme or Sachsenhausen.
"The mass destruction of the Jews began in 1941/1942 and only took place
at some specially selected places equipped with appropriate technical
installations. [These places were] primarily in the occupied Polish
territories (but nowhere in the Altreich): in Auschwitz-Birkenau, in
Sobibor along the Bug, in Treblinka, Chlemno and Belzec." N.B.: Broszat
only wrote that there were no mass gassings of Jews in the Altreich;
he did not make any statement about the existence or non-existence of
gas chambers within the Altreich. Die Zeit, August 19, 1960.

Theresienstadt see H.G. Adler, Theresienstadt 1941-1945 (Tübingen:

- Originally both BW5a and BW5b had one large
gas chamber of around 120 square meters in size. The gas chamber of
BW5a was subdivided into five spaces, of which only two, totalling some
30 square meters, functioned as gas chambers. These gas chambers have
a ceiling at a little over 2 meters high, and have thus a capacity of
60 cubic meters. The gas chamber of BW5b had an average height of 3
meters, and thus a capacity of 360 cubic meters.

- Of the total of 12,000 kg Zyklon B delivered
to Auschwitz, 250 kg represents 2%, and 500 kg represents 4% of the
total Zyklon use, figures that are well within Pressac's 1989 estimate
that between 2 and 3% of Zyklon B shipped to Auschwitz was used for
genocidal purposes.
