2. Mengele Lived in Sao Paulo Area
Document experts from the United States compared the handwriting on documents seized in the Bosserts’ home to known handwriting samples contained in Mengele’s SS-personnel file, the original of which was obtained by OSI and hand-carried to Brazil (The US government’s document team was composed of Gideon Epstein from INS, Dr Antonio Cantu, then of the FBI, and Dr David Crown, an independent consultant). In addition, the experts examined the paper and ink from the confiscated material to determine if there was any evidence that the documents were written after the date of Mengele’s purported death.

During this period, Jewish groups in Vienna were attempting to determine more specific details regarding Mengele’s reported arrest. For instance, on April 8, 1947, Wilhelm Krell and one Mr Lewit from the Jewish community in Vienna, wrote to Dr Schmorak of the Polish-Jewish committee asking him to reveal where Mengele was being held so that they could submit the material they had collected against him. They had received no answer to a similar request for information from their contact in Germany – Mordka Danielski. OSI has found no record of any response to this request (Yad Vashem : 0-5/11, Krell to Schmorak 8 April 1947).

1. Release Procedures
Discharge procedures were simple and were similar to those in the 12th Armored Division areas as described by Professor Earl F. Ziemke in his book, The US Army in the Occupation of Germany :
- The men lined up in the stable compound. On entering the building, they removed their shirts and raised their arms to be inspected for the SS blood-type tattoo. (SS men were held either as prisoners of war or, if they had enough rank, under automatic arrest). After they were inspected, German doctors gave them superficial physical examinations and separated any who were obviously sick. Next the men filled out counterintelligence questionnaires and were interviewed briefly to determine whether they were subject to automatic arrest or had technical skills of intelligence interest. Those who fell into neither category were given slips stamped with a ‘B’ and could be discharged. Those with an ‘A’ slip were put under automatic arrest when they reached the end of the line, With a ‘C’ they were held as prisoners of war. The next step was to fill out the so-called P-4 form, on which the soldier was required to give his name, the names of his close relatives, and his place of residence. After completing the form, he turned his Soldbuch (pay book) over to a German clerk and received a discharge form and instructions on how to act. If he was going to a place in the Seventh Army area, he was also given half a loaf of black bread and about a pound of lard, his rations for the trip, and could leave the stable to wait for a truck to take him home.
