The file contains various documents regarding the treatment of forced laborers from Poland and the Soviet Union in Nazi Germany between 1940 and 1943. Most of the documents are circulars issued by the Gestapo and signed by Heinrich Müller and Reinhard Heydrich giving instructions and regulations on the punishment of Polish and Soviet forced laborers who are accused of sexual intercourse with German women. While some documents also discuss the possibility of “Germanization” of foreign laborers, most regulations turn around the use of the so-called “Sonderbehandlung” which meant execution. Some of the documents are of poor quality.
