Karl Ritter's diary entry that day stated that Hermann Göring had called the Ufa studio to tell him to abort the film. The film is often confused with the full-length documentary film by Karl Ritter, ''Im Kampf Gegen den Weltfeind'' (''In the Battle against World Enemy #1''), released on 15 June 1939 on the same subject.
