This is a detailed interrogation report prepared in July 1945 by SCI Unit A of the Office of Strategic Services in Salzburg, Austria. The CIA later released it under the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act. Its subject is Johann Sanitzer of the Vienna Gestapo, arrested on 7 June 1945. The report records his biography and police career and describes the radio deception games (Funkspiele) he ran with captured Soviet NKVD and Comintern agents. It also covers arrests he made after the 20 July plot. It has no UFO content.
