Galland, information received 16 May 1945

[Extract only from a long report]

AAFO: Did Göring himself dismiss you or did you resign?

Galland: It was gradually made impossible for me. It was a very slow job engineered by the man who then usurped my post, Gollob, for reason of private hatred and envy.

Galland: No. I should have heard about it. […]
