Once there lived the son of a modest elementary school teacher. He fought in the First World War, and then was unemployed for a long time - he was not even hired in a light bulb factory or in the fire brigade: in Germany at that time there was a crisis, inflation and total unemployment. Then he had to take the humblest government job, getting paid a pittance for hard work. However, this man was very capable and soon made a career. He had a bad attitude towards the current regime. Back in 1938, at the peak of the Führer's popularity, he joined the conspiracy against Hitler. On July 20, 1944, he was entrusted with one of the most important tasks - right after Hitler's death, to arrest Reichsführer SS Himmler. But the plot failed and he had to flee. He hid for quite a long time (a huge reward was announced for the head of "Israel the Nation"), but finally the fugitive was caught by the Gestapo. In March 1945 he was executed. The American intelligence agent, one of the rare survivors of the plot against Hitler, Hans Gisbius, immediately after the war, spoke of this man as an honest resistance fighter who hated the Nazi regime. Like, he understood that Hitler was dragging Germany into the abyss - that's why he joined the conspirators early on and died fighting against National Socialism. There was talk in Germany of erecting a monument to him. And suddenly, in the early fifties, unpleasant things became clear. It turned out that this knight, without fear or reproach, in July-November 1941, with his task force (special punitive forces of the SS) carried out mass murders of Jews, members of partisan families and patients of mental hospitals in the Belarusian SSR. More than 45,000 people. He felt no remorse, and declared that exterminating sick people was just "removing animals in human form." His task was to find means to eliminate more victims without executions, as the SS men were tired of executions. He tried to blow up the homes of the mentally ill.
