Mauser personnel question

<< < (2/2)

mrerick:
Ott-Helmut was interrogated by the US CIOS intelligence unit after the war and prior to immigrating under "Paperclip" to the USA (where he worked for Springfield Armory and then as a consultant in Wisconsin where he died).


I've visited his last home in Oberndorf, which is just above the Mauser "chateau".


Ott-Helmut's testimony has been published by Bas Martens in German and more recently in an English translation.

It's a very good read. I also have a monograph written by the may of Oberndorf at the time of the French occupation that is quite interesting.


Also, August Weiss was in charge of Pistols.
