A coursework by Kaltenbrunner. A story.


Stierlitz closed the windows in his villa.

The secret agent Klaus delivered the first sheet of the Kaltenbrunner's coursework to Stierlitz.

Higher educational institution: "The Wehrmacht University".

The topic: "The perspectives of the "Rote Kapelle" after the defeat at Stalingrad".

Fulfilled by: fourth year studentess Gabi Nabel.

Curator: Associate Professor von Papen.

The place where the work was written: the city of Nuremberg.

Stierlitz took out a cigarette.

On a separate sheet of paper, he sketched a plan of action.

"1. Send Pastor Schlag abroad,
2. To dance a waltz with Gabi,
3. To appoint a meeting with Klaus. "

Now he can relax a little and switch to pleasant emotions: “Mushroom rains are coming somewhere far away…”.


Explanation: Stierlitz is the lead character in a popular Russian book series written in the 1960s by novelist Yulian Semyonov and of the television adaptation Seventeen Moments of Spring (1973). Stierlitz has become a stereotypical spy in Soviet and post-Soviet culture, similar to James Bond in Western culture.
