These experiments are a crucial basis for further work and plans in the field of peaceful use of rocket technology.In order to draw attention to the little-known work we have done so far, missiles are launched at regular intervals in the presence of the press, radio, and spectators.Today, several thousand rocket cards in two development series for mail and supply rockets were flown near Hamburg and then handed over to the German Federal Post Office for delivery by post.Hamburg, October 29, 1960.
