There are yet several documents published referring the former departement for espionage (HV A – Hauptverwaltung Aufklärung), led by Colonel General Markus Wolf and later, until the end of the GDR, Colonel General Werner Großmann.
This departement had in the end of 1989 more than 3,800 employees, including ca. 700 unofficial employees (IM) and about 670 officers in special missions (OibE).
Below you find the list of HV A agents uncovered including those like “Gerald” (Dr. Gabriele Gast, spy in western-german espionage service BND) and “Topas” (Rainer Rupp, spy within the NATO):
