The government of the UK published accounts of the Nazis who were intercepted before the end of the Second world war in Europe.
In one of the letters that have been published by GCHQ for the 75th anniversary of the end of world war II, show the last word transmitted by the Lieutenant Kunkelin, who served in the secret service of the German air force shortly before he surrendered to British forces.
The message was sent the morning of 7 may 1945:
"British soldiers entered Cuxhaven (port city on the coast of the North sea — approx. ed.) at 14.00 on may 6 — from this moment stops all radio — wish you all the best. Lieutenant Kunkel".
The message was intercepted by the officers of the British Government school of codes and ciphers.
In another intercepted earlier message said:
"Closing connection forever – all the best – bye".
A few days before this, on may 4, was intercepted another message. In it a German soldier, who was on the Danish coast, was asked on the radio if someone cigarettes. He said that they are not.
