    • 1943 October 4, Heinrich Himmler, Rede vor dem Führerkorps von SS und Polizei in Posen (1st Posen speech):
      Ich will auch ein ganz schweres Kapitel... will ich hier vor Ihnen in aller Offenheit nennen. Es soll zwischen uns ausgesprochen sein, und trotzdem werden wir nicht... in der Öffentlichkeit nie darüber reden. [...] Ich meine die Judenevakuierung, die Ausrottung des jüdischen Volkes.
      I also want a very difficult chapter... I want to mention it here in front of you in all frankness. It should be articulated amongst us, and nevertheless we will not... in public never talk about it. I mean the Jewish evacuation, the extermination of the Jewish people.
      Note: Himmler’s intention in holding this and several similar speeches was not to inform high-ranking officials of what they already knew, but to have proof of their cognisance; this is also why some of these speeches were recorded and transcribed.
