MILITäRARCHIV, FREIBURG-IM-BREISGAU
German naval files have a variety of signatures because the Militärarchiv is reclassifying them and because some were seen at the U.S. National Archives on microfilm, which retains the old PG numbers assigned by the
Admiralty after World War II (“PG” is said to stand for “pinched from the Germans”).
