A last attempt to bring Lammerding to justice was made following the publication of a book by Jacques Delarue, "Trafics et crimes sous l'occupation", in 1968. Following that publication, the socialist Deputy-Mayor of Tulle, Montalat, asked on 11 October 1968, that the French government demand that the German government open proceedings in Germany against Lammerding and that it do so urgently as the first volume of a revisionist history of the "Das Reich" division had just been published (under the pen name of Otto Weidinger) in Germany. Like its predecessors, this request was not followed up. In 1971, Lammerding died of cancer at the age of 66.
