Thank you, Martin, for all your effort and scholarly application to this monumental task. A salutary lesson for us all, and yet there are still those who deny many of the foul occurrences of those years (and since, in other theatres). Personally, I find revisionist excusers revolting, and have had to end a friendship because of it.
Well done, sir, ..now take a deep breath and take a well-earned rest

Epilog II
On June 7, 1951 - six years after the end of the war - the last seven death sentences from the Nuremberg war crimes trials were carried out in the courtyard of the Landsberg am Lech prison.
There are four members of the so-called "SS Einsatzgruppen" who committed mass murders behind the German front in the east:
Ex SS-Gruppenführer and lieutenant general of the police Otto Ohlendorf, commander of"Einsatzgruppe D", which
in southern Ukraine and the Caucasus killed thousands of people ...:
Former SS-Brigadeführer and major general of the police, Erich Naumann, chief from November 1941 to March 1943 of the "Einsatzgruppe B", which murdered in the army area of the "Heeresgruppe Mitte" ...:
Ex SS-Standartenführer Paul Blobel, commander of the "Sondereinsatzgruppe", which played a leading role in the murder of the Soviet Jews and among other things for the massacre in the gorge of Baby-Jar near Kiev was responsible, where in a single day in September 1941 more than 30,000 people were murdered...:
Ex SS-Obersturmbannführer Werner Braune, commander of "Sonderkommando 11b", which murdered in southern Ukraine and the Crimea ...:
Two concentration camp minions are also executed ...:
Ex SS-Hauptsturmführer and adjutant of the camp commandant of Buchenwald concentration camp, Hans-Theodor Schmidt ...:
Ex SS-Hauptscharführer Georg Schallermair, command leader of the "Mühldorf Außenkomando", one Subcamp of the Dachau concentration camp ...:
And finally a desk perpetrator:
- Ex SS-Obergruppenführer and general of the Waffen SS Oswald Pohl, who served as head of the SS economic and Main Administrative Office (WVHA) was significantly involved in the implementation of the Holocaust ...:
All convicts die from the gallows ...:
May they NOT rest in peace!
Cheers

Martin, only now finished to catch up with this intriguing thread
It was both informative and emotional for me, as your thread touched my own family history in at least two points. If I may add my family perspective:
My Grandparents Vilmos (B. 1908, Hebrew name Binyamin Ze'ev), and Ilona (B. 1909, Hebrew name Chaya) and my aunt, Anna (B. 1938, Hebrew name Hanna) were Hungarian Jews. They were separated in 1942 when my grandfather was forcefully taken to be in slave-labor company sent to the eastern front. He was one of 3 surviving out of 300 who were in that group. He was sent to Dachau and eventually liberated there by the Americans. My grandmother and aunt were sent in 1944 to forced labor camps in Austria (luckily for them, as their train was originally destined to Auschwitz). After liberation they were transferred to Terezinstadt, which by that time was already liberated and functioned as a transition camp for refugees. A bit later the family was reunited. Needless to say, both grandparents lost countless relatives (parents, siblings, etc) and friends to the Nazis and their collaborators.
My mother, Alice (Hebrew name Sarah) was born in 1946, and in 1950 they immigrated to Israel. My grandparents passed away many years ago, but I am lucky to have my aunt Hannah around, who made order for me in all that history, in a phone call we just had.
Again, thank you for the thread, and good luck with the book!

Thank you!
It is always very moving for me when the fates of individual people become visible behind the mere "numbers" ...
