Both my legs were in iron splints and were bandaged from the toes up to the groin. I felt a severe pain in my feet, and had a temperature.

On the afternoon of the same day, a German nurse came and gave me an injection, in spite of my protests; she gave me this injection in my thigh and told me that she had to do it.

Four days after this operation a doctor from Hohenlychen arrived, again I was given an injection to put me to sleep, and as I protested he told me that he would change the dressing; I felt a higher temperature and a greater pain in my legs.

A. Twice.

Q. I will ask you to step down and walk over to the defendants' dock and see whether or not you find the man Gebhardt sitting in the dock.

PRESIDING JUDGE BEALS: Do any of the defense counsel desire to cross-examine this witness?

DR. SIEDL: (counsel for the defendants Gebhardt, Oberheuser, and Fischer): I do not intend to cross-examine this witness, but this does not mean that my clients admit the correctness of all statements made by this witness.

PRESIDING JUDGE BEALS: Does any other of the defense counsel dean to examine the witness?

(No response.)
