In its final report of March 20, 1944, the SD Sonderkommando complained that there had been repeated attempts of interfering by uninvolved army officers during the execution of the marches to the final camps, which had hindered the successfull realization of the operation. As an example, the report lists an incident in which a Major demanded that the SD teams pick up children left behind by deported mothers along the marching routes and carry them to the camps. The report described such incidents as “most inappropriate impositions”.
