[Milsurplus] German Torn E.b Receiver- Suspicious Errors.

[Hubert Miller]

I don't know about that, Kurt. There were still inspectors, and the penalty for sabotage, or even nonstandard productivity, was "final". There does seem from what i have read tho, there was variability in how severe the regime was. Ten Boom's workshop sluffed off except when an inspector was coming around. On the other polarity were the KZL works, where even not looking working hard enough could get you gone. The particular instance of the munitions was where German shells didn't go off, and the GI memoirist credited that to his survival.
Now i'm recalling for some reason when i was 10  years old, my friend Ralph would pull the heads off .22 bullets and repack them with wax. He said he could even shoot them off in the house. He was from the other side of the tracks.
