of A erican origin.
The section referred to as ARM was to house the carpenterIs shop begini- in 1953.1
In November 1946, when the groin of deportees arriv-d at Plant No 2, no serviceable
machines were available. About 10 machines, including approximately the sane number
of milling machines, radial drilling machines and lathes, were counted inlilorl-rs! 'on !-,To 1.
Prior to the arrival of the group of deportees, the plant had, allegedly, manufactured
bicycles for children.
The group of deportees numbered about 750 men most of whom were spec .a' i.sts in _ the
Junkers Plant in Dessau. A small p-ortion had belonged to the BMUT Plant in 8t~assfurt.

hand, an Austrian with the name of Brandtner (fnu) was repeatedly .1s.-ti of-ed a':,.ong
the Germans as the "head" of the group.
The German group brought along a number of machines which were completely serviceable.
Most of them came from the Junkers Plant in Des.snu; the remainder from the Bil in
Stapsfurt. Daring the first tfo months, most of these m_ chin^s were set up in
Workshop No 1. Some new foundations had to be built and electric connections to
all machines had to be installed.2
At the beginning of 1947, when the erection of the machines was completed, source
began to work as a grinder in the section referred to as ARM. In this section,

transmission gear fitted to a propeller had broken during test runs. For
a long period, tests had been made with a reduction gear for a speciel
engine. During these tests, one specific tooth of a special gear wheel
was said to have broken. This failure could not be remedied either by
increasing or reducing the number of teeth. It was mentioned in this
connection that the suitable material was not available.

experts in the field of pressing operation. When they left the _ _ant it
was rumored that they were charged with the erection of presses.
