Abwehr in 1944

[Phil Nix]

A meeting was held between General der Gebirgstruppen August Winter, Oberst Georg Hansen and the heads of the Abwehr Departments I and III and Schellenberg , Kaltenbrunner and Müller for the SS in March 1944 to decide the future use of the Abwehr. Who were the heads of Abwehr Depts I and III ?

I came across a pretty interesting book in german when i wrote a paper on the Ahnenerbe a few years ago. Cant remember the title though, i'll see if i can find it.
