The implements are presumably to be used at Finow airfield, o C t?,s The officers are mentioned for the first time. 5.c Air : ~ e mmunition depot of the Twenty.. Fouz t;. in 4'innoow-Vorwerk,, in November and December., received 846 tons and ,, 5 tans-of ammunition respectively, Compared with the preceding months,, this is a considerable incrbase. If anitio pments kept at a similar rates it could be concluded that,, con previous assumption,, the ammunition depot has more than local importance, 6. F::] CqMMq t The ammunition depot in -inow belongs to the Fourth Gde Meow Army. It appears that the shipments were destined for three GA regiments which are stationed in the military posts mentioned. Except for the Brandenburg post,, the receiving stations of the three shipments are located outside the area of the Fourth Gds Mvcz .Army, It is of interest that only incoming fuel shipments have arrived at the depot since the air force had taken over. It is therefore assumed that the depot was being filled and that a delivery to units will start only after stocks reach a certain level. So far the units of the northern fighter corps., which are believed to be scheduled to receive fuel from this depot,,, were still supplied by the central air force fuel depot . a Velten, ~Gomment~ Compared with the preceding month,, the total traffic at this 25X1 railroad station decreased in October and November and,, in December,, considerably increased. Traffic amounted to 198 incoming and outgoing shipnnr in September., 183 in October,, 188 In November and 223 in December. SIRE /COMOL -- U0S.
