Germany: Security and Intelligence Organisations

1 Jan 1944

A file of reports on the organisation and functions of the various German security and intelligence agencies. The reports cover the command structure and responsibilities of a number of organisations, including the Sicherheitsdienst, the Reichssicherheitshauptamt, the SS and the Gestapo, as well as inter-service relations and cooperation. Amongst the examples of activities carried out by these organisations are internal security and persecution of political dissidents in Germany; suppression of anti-Nazi resistance and partisan activity in occupied Europe; intelligence gathering abroad, including in Spain and Italy; and the organisation of renegade Soviet troops into a pro-German army.
