the new mysterious project and its 1,500,000 mark budget and have asked the
chief Z8S Germans to talk it up, it seems highly likely that the whole
thing is a sham designed to boost morale during the completion of the present
laboratory track werk.
2. During the week of 21 June another listof possible deportees was drawn up;
this one WA more comprehensive than the first list, and included, non-
technical personnel. The list was prepared by Fraillein Relka, former
secretary to Professor von Braun in Peenemtnde and latterly mistress of It.
Colonel Baurov. Such personnel 1411 be sent to the USSR prior to 20 August
25X1 (of. Paragraph 7).
' Before hip departure for Russia, Baurov said that his new assignment was to
be directing officer for art A-10 practise shooting ground located in a
