GENERAL ADMINISTRATIVE SUB DIVISION GD DIVISION MISSIVE INTERNAL SIGNAL NOTE ORDER MEMO EDICT REQUEST No 1

In order that the continued smooth running of the division continues to continue in a clear logical and precise Teutonic administrative fashion I thought it necessary to clear up a few misconceptions that some here at admin. believe some of you at the front may have misunderstood since the last dispatch of this type MISNOMER no-1.52

Pursuant to regulation of orders in the field concerning the merit of logistical reorganisation pertaining to the over seeing and underside of regulations regarding stipulations in the form of tactical replenishment of ammunition and such like, I nearby take great pleasure in informing the division that the overtall situation remains approximately the same as it was last Thursday when the previous memo was sent to all divisional personnel responsible to or involved and co-operating or not with divisional administration were and are notified of the above.

Yours sincerely Major Generalpfumf Leiderhoffmeister

post scvipt. please stop sending swastika spoons back home to make pots and pans with as we have nothing to stir our coffee with, thanks and well done for not getting captured during last offensive I and all staff here at admin. hope you found the shipment of twenty metric tonnesphfumf of bleached white paper doilies of some use for winter camouflage. May I take this opportunity to ask why you needed forty thousand round 'o' pulleys? sorry we could only get hold of the 3621 assorted pulleys but they are in demand especially with tractor cases in hospitals across the Fatherland, some of whom we have had to supply with bricks in order that they can have there legs propped up while recovering from various fractures. Sorry we were out of 80mm tank shelves but as they couldn't have been that important.

It has come to my attention that it is summer and therefore the doilies might not have been much help. If you won't be needing them could we have them back when you get a chance.

Also could you confirm where you are? Which country, etc. etc.

Yours sincerely Major Generalpfumf Leiderhoffmeister

post srvipt. it has come to my attention that it was tank shells you wanted. please make sure you order properly next time and remember it takes two to really cock things up.
