Der Leibnizsche Substanzbegriff: Mit Besonderer Beziehung Auf Seine Entstehung Und Sein Verhaltnis Zur Korperlehre (1899)

On May 23, 1945, two OSS of icers (Of ice of Strategic Services) delivered a special order from General Patton to 2nd Lt. Bonano. The order, purposefully obfuscated, turned out to be his most puzzling and bizarre assignment during the eleven month surge across France and Germany. The OSS of icers escorted Bonano to southern Bavaria, near the Austrian Alps, to a heavily guarded log building concealed in a grove of evergreens. Inside, Bonano discovered a huge cache of Nazi gold, silver and currencies from several nations. His assignment: make an inventory, following which he escorted the cache on back roads to a lone castle on the Neckar River in Heidelberg, and not to the Reichstag Bank in Frankfurt as it should have been.
