military orders were necessary for any travel into Berlin,
including flight by Pan American Airways, which also operated

occasion in the summer because he clearly remembered how early

KARLOW stated he rarely became involved in operations
and was usually occupied in making arrangements and setting things
up for use of the facilities of TAD. He recalled, however, he was
involved in an operation with [JOHN PARKER and HARRY ROSITZKE of
the SR (Soviet Russia) Division and flew to Berlin in 1952 in
this connection. KARLOW explained the operation involved a planned
attempt to steal the latest model MIG fighter plane and great
preparation had been made but at the last minute the adventure
was called off because of possible, political and diplomatic

some visits to Berlin and on one or more occasions he stayed
the Harnach House, an Army guest house for the Berlin command
KARLOW further advised that before his marriage he
and his mother had visited Italy and Corsica, and also the
Austrian spa town of Bad Gastein and thought that may have been
during the Summer of 1951. He said on a second fr

wife had gone to Corsica on two occasions, and to Rome, and had

KARLOW stated that before their marriage "LIBBY"

RAUSCH had gone to Berlin and stayed at the residence of
WILLIAM K. HARVEY. KARLOW said he had not visited Berlin with
"LIBBY" before marriage but recalled he had done so on one
occasion after marriage and he recollected he had become ill
on the train from some oysters he had eaten.
KARLOW explained in early February, 1950, he proceeded
to Frankfurt and took over as Chief of TAD which was located
in the Frankfurt Suburb of Hoechst at Feldbergstrasse 44, and
had mail address APO 709. KARLOW resided in an apartment
located in an adjoining building. KARLOW advised when he
assumed charge of TAD the unit consisted of only about nine
persons. From recollection KARLOW identified TAD personnel
