Note the report in columns 5-6: "Gen. Udet, Luftwaffe Supply Head, Reported a Suicide"
(This report, like most such reports, was not true, but would be in a few months. Generaloberst Ernst Udet did commit suicide, but not until Nov. 17, 1941. The report also claims he was under arrest, which was not true, but he was having difficulty with Göring and Erhard Milch. At least this report has a disclaimer that it has not been confirmed and in fact that Berlin has denied the report.)
