Nara T-175, roll 574 has these documents: "Signed top-secret report from Kaltenbrunner to Himmler, dated May 31, 1944, about the espionage case of Per Becker-Ericksen, captured by the Russians in January 1944 while serving on the eastern front with the Norwegian 11 . SS Pz. Grenadier-Division "Nordland" and parachuted into Germany as a Soviet agent. Penciled notations indicate that this report reached Himmler at his field headquarters around Jun 7, 1944. A carbon copy of a transcript of Becker-Ericksen deposition under interrogation, dated Oct 19, 1944, is also included."
Does anyone have any more info on this case?

Interesting case! Pity, I don't know more. What was Becker-Ericksen's rank in that time?
