of my staff to represent me at these. I remember that Schubert inspected an execution which was carried out by Kommando 11b under Braune's direction in December 1941 in Simferopol. The only people whom I generally assigned to inspections were, except for Schubert, Willy Seibert and Hans Gabel. The latter was captain of the protective police [Schutzpolizei] and commander of the protective police company attached to me. Details, such as whether and to which executions I sent the two last named, I can no longer remember.

I have read the above statement in the German language consisting of 4 pages and declare that it is true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief. I have had opportunity to make alterations and corrections in the above statement. I have made this statement voluntarily and freely, without any promise of reward, and I was subjected to no compulsion or duress of any kind.
