a. Podejuch is southeast of &tettin. Two German engineer battalions
were stationed in Podejuch in 1939. The former German engineer
'casettes and the enrineer?traininc Ground are presumably still
in use.
b. In the Jtettin area Polish engineer trooris were rreviously
observed only in otettin-I:ogodno (two engineer battalions) and
in the kasernes on ,;ojska Polskiego (one battalion). The 5th
";,asurian" 4/1gr a:egt was also identified in 6tettin (kaserne
.on flenent Janitzki -otreet). It is acsumed that some units were
reported more than once in different installations.
c. The following engineer units are probably stationed in the
L:tettin area:'"
One encineer regiment of the 2d . one engineer battalion of the
