Hitlers Crime Fighter by David Lee
In the Third Reich, the S ran the Gestapo, the police and the concentration camps where millions of people were killed. However Nazi Germany still had laws and a legal system which outlawed murder and other criminal acts and S Investigating Judge and Police Official S, Major Konrad Morgen, used these laws to investigate and bring individual members of the S to justice for their crimes against innocent victims. He was a fearless judge and investigator, and when he crossed swords with more powerful forces inside the S he was demoted and sent by the Reichsf hrer Heinrich Himmler himself to the Eastern Front as an ordinary soldier in the Waffen S. But his investigative skills were still needed and he returned to launch a series of criminal investigations in concentration camps. As a direct result of his investigations two concentration camp commandants were shot before the end of the War and he arrested three others. This book describes the cases he investigated and how he was able to pursue some of Nazi Germany's worst murderers from inside the S.David Lee is a historian who has written two other books about the Second World War. The first, Beachhead Assault, is a history of the Royal Naval Commandos who were the first onto the invasion beaches and the second, Up Close and Personal, describes what it was like to fight on the front line during the war. He lives in England.
