Concerns: Justice exercised by the people against Anglo-American murderers.
In the last few weeks low-flying English and American flyers have repeatedly shot children playing in squares, women and children at work in the fields, peasants plowing, vehicles on the highways, trains, etc. from a low altitude with their aircraft guns [Bordwaffen], and have thus murdered defenseless civiliansparticularly women and childrenin the vilest manner.
Several instances have occurred where members of the crews of such aircraft who have bailed out or have made forced landings were lynched on the spot immediately after capture by the populace which was incensed to the highest degree.
No police measures or criminal proceedings were invoked against the German civilians who participated in these incidents.
