Memorandum for Colonel A.M. Baron van Tuyll van Serooskerken

25 January 1948 MEMORANDUM for Colonel A* M. Baron van Tuyll van Serooskerken. SUBSECT i Johann Karl Tlefel I write this memorandum rather Informally because I understand that you are leaving early tomorrow morning. The Special Projects Division has just turned over material against one JOHANN KARL TIEFEL to the Bavarian Courts for trial as a war criminal. Tlefel was an SS Untersturmfuehrer and as such a construction foreman with the SS enterprise L1TBENS30RN e.v. In Munich. In this function he maltreated in the most inhuman manner about 20 Dutch workers from the Concentration camp Dachau. We have two German witnesses to this effect but X think that the case could be immensurably strengh- tened if we could get either Dutch witnesses who were mistreated by Tlefel or who witnessed his misdeeds on Dutch fellow workers. I think It sh uld be possible to locate such Dutch witnesses by contacting Dutch associations of former concentration camp inmates or through the use of the radio. If you could help us In this respect it would be greatly appreciated.
