A list of belongings of Adolf Eichmann made by Israeli agents upon his arrest.
Fritz Bauer was a German judge and prosecutor who was active in the ongoing postwar efforts to obtain justice and compensation for victims of the Nazi regime. In 1958, he succeeded in getting a class action lawsuit, in the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials. He was also instrumental in the intelligence that he relayed to the Mossad in 1957 that allowed Adolf Eichmann to be captured. From 1957-1960 Fritz Bauer was instrumental in tracking Eichmann down in Argentina and bringing him to trial in Israel...

Irish vs. Vikings
The Real Reasons for the Viking Raids Whenever we hear the Vikings, what comes into our mind is a group of men who wielded their axe killing people, looting, and raiding the villages. They unexpectedly showed up on their ship and did a hit-and-run raid to make fortune. This is a stereotype by the media that needed to be stopped. Because the Vikings were not the careless and provocative barbarians. They were actually defending their culture against the conversion of the new religion.

Ernst Kaltenbrunner (leader of the Austrian SS, then Generalleutnant der Polize), Heinrich Himmler, and camp commandant Franz Ziereis inspect Mauthausen concentration camp in April 1941.
This photo series is from a family's 1936 photo album. They show a fest day in Berchtesgaden, with many people in the traditional Alpine Trachten clothing - the women in Dirndls and the men wearing Lederhosen and traditional leather jackets. (Such clothing can still be seen today on the Berchtesgaden streets.) The view above is looking down Marktplatz Straße toward the square, with the spires of the Stiftskirche church in the background. #Berchtesgaden
