Wehrmacht: Copy instructions re management of troops

This copy translation of a document, the original of which was issued by the High Command of the Wehrmacht, was given to the depositor by Major Christopher Milner. The whereabouts of the original is unknown. Nor is it known how Major Milner came into possession of it. A letter dated January 1985 from the Imperial War Museum to Major Milner casts doubt on its authenticity.
