Note(s)
Seems to be Servatius, defense counsel for Sauckel, at the podium, references to Central Planning and to labor. English translation voiceover heard. Likewise is following segment with another German defense counsel. Footage most likely matches description for NARA's 111 ADC 6012 story card which is missing from the stacks, not 111 ADC 5914 as we ordered in 2001. NARA may have the film reel mislabeled.
