_SCCNABENTIAL— fo come te the Point: after having reconsidered everything, I want to supplementary first statements. Zfter having been questioned Ly an American agency in BERLIN~MARIEN- FELDE, 1 was flown to CBEKUKSEL upon instrueticn from this office after completing the preliminary hearing and there I came to the American camp, "Camp King". There I was questioned again by more persons, some of which were dressed in civilian clothes and some in uniform, concerning my knowledge on geological drilling. After the questioning 1 was sent again to Lager hastatt (IN: C mp KASTATT). ‘As far as I remember, 1 was given the mission to report to BENLIN as a Sovietezonal refugee and try to get to CBERUKSEL. The mission was given to k_ blond hair com traight back with the hairline slightly receeding. i was to try and find out the layout of "Camp King", the .merican and German personnel present, and the methods of interrogation by the Americans, as ‘ell as the names of the persons to be interrogated. I was to inform the MfS about my findings, for which purpose, I was to report again at a time of my choosing tc the nearest MfS office in EST GERMANY. I also did this according to instructions. For this task I didn't receive any money or other compensation what-soekever. U on orders from where 1 reported to the refugee camp and declared that I had troubles with the MfS in MERKERS and I fled from EAST GERM’NY for this reason, an a Be, We; DOWNGRADED AT 12 YEAR | NOT AUTOMATICALLY DECLASSIFIED, DOD DIR $200.10
—CONFIDENTIAL At that time 1 had on my person a few hundred &AST marks. 1 was sent to Comp King just as 1 had been ordered, was flown to Flu. nl /M with an Ameri iLit a then taken to Camp Ki where _m interrogation took place. Ky way of Camp KASTAIT and WEINSBERG, I arrived at SCHORNDORF, where 1 was officially registered at Neuenstr. 19, residing with WIEDENFOEFER. ‘There I worked with the firm of Bauknecht until the end of June 1960. knd of page CaO pr - a MCLOPR ED PROM cep i . es ee Oe Wen, ooN
~2~ Since 1 had declared myself willing to report to the M£S after a certain time, I quit my job and left SCHUKNDURF without formal no ice of departure. i went as far as LUEBECK on the train and went aeross the border near SCHLUTUP. the direction of East Germany. Then I reported to the Hast German border police, and the MfS from GHEVEMUGHLEN picked me up with a car. There 1 wrote up and presented a report about my observations during my stay in BENLIN~ MALIENFELDE, about my flight to FRANKFURT/M, and about Camp King. 1 also mentioned the name of Karl LAMBENT of MERKERS, from whom I had reesived this mission. But we were not brought together. I stayed in GREVESMUEHLEN until Sunday evening. In BREVESMUEHLEN 1 received from 4 members of the MfS, whose names I don't know, the mission to go to WEST GikM. NY and to spy upon the lay= objects in SOUTH GkhM:NY. 1 was to put my observations into writing and send it to the cover address of "/mni SCHULZE", GREVESMUEHLEN, Pcstla (IN: General Delivery). 1 received from on e of the MfS people 200 DM West and then was taken tc the border with a sedan. i then passed over during the hours of darkness near SCHLUTUP in the direction of West Germany. J] took the train again from LUEBECK to MUNICH and further on to FUEKSTENFELDBRUCK. J made no.es about the airfields and sent these notes to the given cover address by first class mail from MUNICH. I then travelled on to KUBLN and there I made a sketch of the KOELNW: d, which I also sent by first class mail from KOELN to the cover address. From the fenced in part of Camp King in OBSRUKSEL. EXCLUDED FROM G DECLASSIFICAT] ON SCHEDULE
Also im accordance with my orders I prepared sketches of the Camp King (GBERURSEL) fence line, they wanted me to especially indicate the distance from the fenee to the temporary barracks. This sketch 1 mailed from Fx:.NKFURT/M to the cover address I was given. I must amend that for the trip from LUEBECK to MUNICH I received DM 75 (West in addition to DM 200 (West). ln the aforementioned cities I stayed for about 2 weeks altogether. By the middle of June I left FRANKFUNT on a hitehhike trip all over the Federal Republic. On this trip I came through MUNICH, STUTTGART, HANNOVER, and other smaller towns the name of which I have forgotten. In H/.NNCVER I have been last week. The reason for this sort of vagrancy has been a certain fear of being apprehended by the West German police and the doubt of a successful erossing of the Zone border. 4s a matter of facet, 1 had in mind to quit working for the MfS and was not sure if 1 ought to return to the Zone. Lven= tually I came around to the conviction that giving myself up to the police would be the best way to break with the past. When asked where my reception certificate of the BLNeMARIENFELD Keception Camp was, I truthfully replied that I had mailed the document to Karl L:MBERT, an MfS agent, mail address BD SALZUNGEN. This happened in May in UBERURSEL, 1 also inelosed the re~ ferral slip and the health certificate. 1 had been assigned the mission by LsMBERT to mail him the originals of these papers and tha’. is what I did. While I have been in confinement in the BAaUPZEN penitentary I signed a paper for a State Security agent named KRUG, who has been employed as a wel- fare commissioner of the penitentiary, a paper, by which I was obligated to prepare morale reports on my fellow-inmates and on the attitude of the policement towards the convicts. This i have carried out about 25 or 30 times. Pope ppp ey eg veh ba ay F SOUT OENERAL a PWORY pomp TWACLAS SEPT EN SO ED OTR
All the same, I have not been able to perceive any repercussions on persons mentioned in my reports, I mus: add, though, that I have kept these reports very general without accusing anybody specifically. KRUG, assigned the cover name "Fritz WaLliii." to me by which 1 used to sign my reports. From time tc time 1 received a pack of cigarettes for my work, but nothing else. ifter my release 1 have been employed by the firm SIMSON in SUHL, and again I contacted by an MfS agent by name of either NEUB UL or NEUGEBAUER,. He made me write reports on the production cf Mopeds and on the difficulties of their manufacture. For this work 1 received from NEUBAUER up to DM 100 (East) from time to time. gain 1 used tc sign the reports with my cover name "Fritz wALlER", Since Christmas 1956, 1 started living separately from my wife. 1 filed a divoree, because I am sure that I am not the father of her child; the case was dismissed though. Up tc now 1 have no paid any support for the child. However, my wife has taken my accident annuity and spent it for her own purposes. I believe ichave told everything I kmow. I have given this information voluntarily and told the truth. l am not able to make further statements. Personally read, approved, and s.gned.
