It is pretty common knowledge that Dr. Sorge, working out of the German Embassy in Tokyo, was actually a spy reporting back to the Soviets. Sorge was the guy who informed Soviet Marshall Zhukov that the Japanese were not going to invade Russia's eastern shores and thus, his massive defensive force there was released to be thrown against the German armies of Operation BARBAROSA that were already bogged down in the Russian winter. It is also pretty common knowledge that Dr. Sorge was executed in the spring of 1945 - but was he really executed?

According to a book released some years ago, written by a friend of Dr. Sorge, it is not certain that Sorge really was executed. The war was about ended, and many agents were being rounded up and faced trial - others had their escape routes already planned and made their escape; many to the Soviet Union, others to the USA or England while a huge number made it to South America. This book was written by Dr. Hans-Otto Meissner, a friend of Sorge's in the German Embassy in Tokyo during the war years.

S.E.I.G. Agent Be566 tells us that U-864 departed a German port bound for Japan and aboard was a Kapitanleutnant Plass. He was to hold the military tribunal to charge Dr. Sorge but U-869 did not make it to Japan. She was sunk to the west of Bergen, Norway by the Royal Navy submarine HMS VENTURER on 9 February 1945. By this time in the war, British submarines were lying in wait outside German held ports to ambush U-boats as they came out.

According to S.E.I.G. Agent Be566, there were some interesting passengers aboard U-869 as well. This was a large Type IX-D2 boat and so had more room and a tremendous cruising range. These are the passengers on this U-boat:

Lt. Von Clingensperg, born 25 June 1904. He represented Messerschmitt and was an expert on the Me 262 jet fighter and the Me 163 KOMET rocket fighter.

Lt. Rolf Schomerus, born 31 December 1909. He also represented Messerschmitt and was also an expert on the Me 262 jet fighter & the Me 163 KOMET rocket fighter.

Kapitanleutnant Sven Plass, born 12 August 1908. He was to hold the tribunal against Dr. Sorge.

Kapitanleutnant Jobst Hahndorff Skipper in training.

Mtr.Gefr. Franz Turk. He carried with him, steel bottles of water ..... heavy water, known as deuterium! We need to know more about this Seaman First Class and why he was chosen to carry the heavy water to Japan. Why was he Mtr.Gefr. when he was a Doctor from a German university? Shouldn't he have been an officer?

This was Operation GS and GK 3100. We need to know all about it. Who can help? We know that, at this time in the war, Germany was trying to get U-boats out to Japan with jet fighter technology, heavy water, uranium oxide etc. to help Japan drive back the Allies and save Germany. In fact, it was SHARKHUNTERS who proved that this was taking place, despite the so-called `experts' in the early 1980's stating flatly that this never happened. It did indeed happen, and we want to know more about it.
