1944152575Perhaps Versailles: Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force December 1944. The Allies prepare to take over Germany First edition initially classified "restricted" but subsequently stamped as "secret" on the front cover. Chapter VI concerns the control disarmament and disbandment of "para-military and police organizations" including the SS and other forces of the Nazi Party. It outlines Allied plans to ban the wearing of Nazi insignia detain implicated personnel and co-opt commanders of military districts Wehrkreis to take over the administration of liberated concentration camps and preserve vital evidence. Other chapters address the disarmament of Wehrmacht forces the seizure of communications infrastructure and relations with civilians as well as intelligence work the broader preservation of German state and army documents and the repatriation of Allied POWs. The two maps record the proposed division of Berlin into three international zones and the boundaries of the Wehrkreis. Chapter XIII correctly anticipates that the Nazi leadership will fight on even amid a hopeless situation and stresses the importance of capitalizing on any brief window between the final collapse of Hitler's regime and the emergence of an organized resistance to occupation. Distribution was ultimately intended to be as follows: "Army down to lieutenant-colonel's commands; Navy down to Commanders in Command on shore and all Commanding Officers of Men of War under the orders of the Supreme Commander; Air Forces down to Unit Commanders of the occupying Air Forces and of the air disarmament organization" p. 1.
