Document from the Foreign Ministry, titled as “Geheime Kommandosache” containing a telegram from Rahn, dealing with the possible disarming of the French garrison in Bizerte, because of suspected treason. Concludes that disarmament is strategically impossible and points to loyality declaration by admiral Derrien, but he still considers the exchange of French troops with Germans as a last resort.
