		Abwehr scored perhaps its greatest victories in the area of industrial espionage, as agents managed to steal the blueprint for every major American airplane produced for the war effort.

		Even though it only operated under their control for the first few years, the Abwehr was able to put in place a covert arm of the CIA that has operated independently of the CIA ever since.

		Ausland Abwehr-that is of Canaris-and in the main I pointed out, first of all, the most unfavorable effect of such measures on the troops, namely on the front troops, that they would never understand such orders, particularly not the simple soldier.
		Offices of the Abwehr Division III were active in these camps, and in this way, that is, through the normal service channels, we were informed by reports and oral presentation of all these measures and of their effects.
		Each one of these military Abwehr units was asked again and again to combine our purely military tasks which were determined by the needs of the Wehrmacht leadership with political or terroristic measures, as is clearly shown by the memorandum on our files concerning preparation of the campaign against Poland.

	German Espionage and Sabotage Against the U.S. in World War II
		These requests the Abwehr endeavored to meet, at the same time being engaged in the task of collecting on a world-wide scale all manner of information which could be of interest to the High Command or the individual services subordinate thereto.
		This was successful in the spring of 1944 when the Abwehr was finally taken over by the R.S.H.A. Some of its functions were handed over to Amt VI and Amt IV (the Gestapo) but the majority, as well as most of the personnel, were retained in a new section known as the Militaerisches Amt.
		The Abwehr was further handicapped by bureaucracy, lack of initiative, and corruption on the part of many of its officers, who were lukewarm Nazis at best and regarded a berth in the Abwehr as an opportunity to avoid service on the Russian front.

	Delta Green - Campaign - Order of Battle - Die Brandenburger, Abwehr II (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Abwehr Abteilung II/Ausland, the department responsible for foreign intelligence and sabotage, created the Baulehr-Kompanie zur besonderen Verwendung 800 (construction/training company for special applications no. 800) shortly after the start of the war, incorporating men from the earlier units as well as other suitable volunteers.
		While Admiral Canaris and other leaders of the Abwehr are believed to have created the Brandenburger as a means of getting at an efficient private army, this idea soon failed - most members of this unit, while not necessarily fanatical loyal to Hitler and his Nazi ideology, were extremely patriotic and nationalistic.
		These men were not loyal to the head of the Abwehr, but to their immediate commanders and their country only.

	Abwehr - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term Abwehr (German for defence) was used as a concession to Allied demands that Germany's post-World War I intelligence activities be for "defensive" purposes only.
		In friendly countries of interest, occupied countries, or in Germany itself, the intelligence service would normally organise "Abwehr sub-stations" ("Abwehrleitstellen" in German or "Alsts" in German), or "Abwehr adjoining posts" ("Abwehrnebenstellen"' in German').
		The "Alsts" would fall under the jurisdiction of the geographically appropriate Ast, which in turn would be supervised by the Central division in Berlin.

		La nueva "Amt Auslands und Abwehr" fue puesta bajo la dirección del coronel del ejército Erich Fritz Gempp, un diminuto espía muy experimentado que inmediatamente se puso a trabajar recabando información secreta sobre los aviones aliados.
		Sin embargo, la Abwehr resultó exitosa abriendo oficinas en países latinoamericanos desde donde se retransmitía información, por medio de radios clandestinas, para evitar la interceptación por parte de los servicios de espionaje británicos.
		La Abwehr tuvo demasiada burocracia, estaba excesivamente organizada, tenía una evidente falta de iniciativa y estaba infiltrada en lo alto del poder militar, por opositores al régimen, el mismísimo Canaris y Oster.

		The Wehrmacht officers, Abwehr intelligence agents, diplomats of the foreign ministry, civil servants, anti-nazi politicians, and clergymen who joined the conspiracy knew that they were risking their careers, their families, and above all their lives in scheming against Hitler.
		Deputy Abwehr Chief Colonel Hans Oster had nothing but contempt for Nazism and harbored a burning hatred for Hitler.
		As Canaris's second in command, he labored furiously to stop Himmler's SS intelligence, commanded by Reinhard Heydrich, from encroaching on the Abwehr while Canaris passed on state secrets to London and coordinated coup planning against Hitler.

		In preparation for his mission Pfaus was to later meet with the officer in charge of Office 1 West, Abwehr II HQ- Hauptmann Friedrich Carl Marwede, codenamed "Dr.Pfalzgraf".

	Lone Sentry: Operation Easter Egg, German Plan For Sabotage Depots (WWII U.S. Intelligence Bulletin, March 1946)
		A report on German Abwehr sabotage depots buried in France and Western Europe during 1944-45, from the Intelligence Bulletin, March 1946.
		These folders also contained data giving routes to the site, and were distributed as follows: to the Abwehr Kommando (battalion or group) charged with execution of the specific depot; to the Leitstelle II West (regional headquarters at Paris, later moved to Bad Ems and Bad Orb); and to the Abwehr II in Berlin.
		The rapidity of the Allied thrusts on the continent complicated training and operational activities of the units engaged in Operation Easter Egg, so that, ultimately, the undertaking failed to accomplish more than the burying of now-forgotten sabotage dumps somewhere beneath the soil of northern France.
