Interrogation Report of Karl Schnettler 6824 DTC (MIS)M.1075 dated 13
Mar 45 discussing activities at I.G. Farben, Ludwigschafen and Kaiser
Wilhelm Institute.

All documentation taken from US Government microfilm under FOIA

Section C:

Experiments

PW could add little to the information in Report 2/32.

Experiment with Rats

In the experiment of Apr 44 (See Report 2/32), PW stated that, when
the rats were bombarded by the rays, a phosphorescent glow was
observed over their bodies, lasting about a fifth of a second. PW
believed that the rats were reduced to a gaseous sodium (?) which had
been drawn into the vacuum system of the test stand.

This aligns with microfilm evidence of laser testing at I.G. Farben
prersented by German researcher Fredrich Georg in his books.

Engineers that participated in these experiments mentioned in Allied
reports were Dipl-Ing Meissner, Ike, and also statements by their
advisor Eringer.

Meissner also worked on the German Magnetic Wave device
(Motorstoppmittel). Project 1217, "Investigation Into German Possible
Use Of Rays To Neutralize Allied Aircraft Motors". This weapon was
constructed by the ELEMAG Construction Company, Hildesheim, 24 Jan 44

Further testimony comes from U-boat 977 Capt. Heinz Schaeffer of a
beam weapon demonstration in Berlin just before he departed and ended-
up surrendering at Mar del Plata in Argentina

Secret Weapons, Science, and Technology" (2007) filled with

What other type of beam weaponry are you suggesting for
disintegration?

Curious???

Lasers do not "disintegrate" anything. They can cut or burn, though.
