(Proctor, Racial Hygiene, pp.26-27). In the same year he was awarded the Nazi's highest scientific award, the Adlerschild des Deutschen Reiches. Lehmann died in 1935.

The harshest punishment administered was incarceration in a concentration camp for a few months, admittedly no holiday, but not capital punishment either.

1333 | It may be considered curious that one could be a member of the SA (or indeed the SS) without joining the NSDAP. This has been explained as follows: If at the time of National Socialism one was politically incriminated or suspect one could, without difficulty, become an SA member, but under no circumstances a Party member, because in regard to Party membership, and even ordinary Party membership, much higher political qualifications were required than in the case of the SA. There were certainly many SA members who joined this organization only to escape to some extent the persecution they had to expect because of their incriminating political record. [http://www.tinyurls.co.uk/U13892 (Accessed 24 December 2008)].
The same criterion applied to the SS: among 118 SS officers, 89 were members of the NSDAP and 29 were not. It is interesting that even in the SS one third of the officer class (all volunteers) were not members of the Nazi Party. [http://tinyurl.com/32bxcdj (Accessed 6 March 2008)]. |

Oberhauser's memory regarding dates, like most other matters, was unreliable, probably deliberately so. Sobibor commenced killing operations at the beginning of May 1942, while the first transport to Treblinka arrived on 23 July 1942. However, Brack's alleged promise of a further supply of T4 staff seems quite plausible, since that is exactly what transpired during summer 1942. |

1378 | Shortly after commencing employment with T4, Lorent was taken on a guided tour of Hadamar, Bernburg, Sonnenstein, and Hartheim, where he witnessed the gassing of concentration camp prisoners, part of Sonderbehandlung 14f13. Lorent claimed to have been deeply shocked by what he had witnessed. He professed to have been equally horrified by what he encountered in the Aktion Reinhard camps. Neither experience persuaded him to change his occupation, which, considering his relationship with Brack, was undoubtedly possible if he had indeed wished to do so.

I'm sorry to have to say to you that I can't help you with the particular Becker you're referring to. He doesn't surface in our digital databank on the German trials at all [http://tinyurl.com/35e4mhr] and, as you say, Klee hardly mentions him in his books. Since Klee is the undisputed expert on the post-war careers of types like Becker, the fact that he doesn't mention him at all in his Was sie taten - Was sie wurden, or in his Personenlexikon zum Dritten Reich suggests to me that Becker, in one way or another, vanished from the face of the earth at the end of the war.

1459 | The following biographical material has largely been derived from Ulf Schmidt, Karl Brandt: The Nazi Doctor Medicine and Power in the Third Reich (London: Hambledon Continuum, 2007). |
1460 | A number of different doctors treated Hitler for a variety of ailments over the years. Brandt's medical function as escort physician was limited to providing emergency treatment in the event of an accident. Unlike Theodor Morell, Ludwig Stumpfegger or Werner Haase, Brandt was never Hitler's doctor in the sense that he prescribed treatment for the Führer's numerous complaints, as he has many times been incorrectly described. (Weindling, Nazi Medicine and the Nuremberg Trials, p.140). |

1829 | This reasoning is remarkably similar to that advanced by certain leaders of the Judenrate in the ghettos of eastern Europe, justifying the sacrifice of part of the community in order to save the remainder. See, for example, Chaim Rumkowski in Lodz, Jacob Gens in Vilna, and Mosze Meryn in Sosnowiec. Of course, there were others like Adam Czerniakow in Warsaw, or Elchanan Elkes in Kovno, who either chose suicide rather than condemn their fellow Jews, or steadfastly refused to cooperate with the murderers despite the risks involved.

1935 | A number of sources incorrectly state that Bauer died in Berlin-Tegel prison. The judgement by the Hagen court against Karl Frenzel of 4 October 1985 stated: ` Durch Beschluss des Senats von Berlin vom 30. November 1971 wurde die weitere Vollstreckung der Strafe mit Wirkung vom 22. Dezember 1971 im Gnadenwege ausgesetzt.' Bauer ist inzwischen verstorben am 4. Februar 1980. ( By a resolution of the Senate of Berlin of 30 November 1971 the further enforcement of the punishment [against Bauer] was suspended. As an act of clemency a pardon was granted on 22 December 1971. Bauer died on 4 February 1980.) I am grateful to Dick de Mildt for providing me with this information. Although only a detail, the fact that Bauer died a free man is important. |

1966 | There were actually three trials of personnel who served at Treblinka the first, of Josef Hirtreiter was held at Frankfurt in 1951. The second, major, trial of 10 defendants was held in Düsseldorf in 1964/65. The third, of Franz Stangl also took place in Düsseldorf in 1970. Hirtreiter's trial is usually disregarded for the purpose of numbering, so references herein to the first and second Treblinka trials are to the trials held in Düsseldorf. |

When the war was won, the bombing immediately stopped; where the Nazis occupied, the killing immediately began. |

2046 | La Risiera was an abandoned rice mill in the San Sabba suburb of Trieste. It was intended to serve as a transit camp for the deportation of Italian Jews to German concentration camps, primarily Auschwitz. However, according to Italian sources, it also served as a killing centre; more than 3,000 Jews and Italian and Yugoslav partisans were murdered there. Erwin Lambert constructed a crematorium at La Risiera in early 1944. (O'Neil, Belzec, pp.197- 199). |

Stangl, of course, did not arrive at Treblinka until the camp had been operational for five weeks, during which time approximately 312,500 Jews had already been murdered.

2183 | Ibid., p.159. The real names of very few of the death camp personnel were known to the prisoners. Some guards were given nick-names (for example, Fritz Küttner was called Kiewe, Otto Stadie Fesele [barrel]); others were known only by their first names, actual or assumed, such as Josef Hirtreiter. In his groundbreaking essay, The Hell of Treblinka, initially published in November 1944 and largely based upon the testimony of survivors, Vasily Grossman was able to identify the monstrous Hirtreiter only as Sepp. [Vasily Grossman, The Road, (London: MacLehose Press, 2010) p.149]. In some cases surnames were misheard by prisoners; Abraham Krzepicki refers to Max Bielas as Bieler (Donat, The Death Camp Treblinka, p.131); Moshe Bahir names Karl Frenzel as Frantzl (Novitch, Sobibor Martyrdom and Revolt, p.153). Richard Glazar wrote: Almost everyone is given a nickname We only know their real names from what we have heard. We don't know how they are spelled (Glazar, Trap With A Green Fence, p.46). Such difficulty in matters of identification could later have potentially serious consequences for defendants, as well as causing a major problem regarding intended or actual prosecutions. See, for example, the case of Ivan Demjanjuk. |

The bodies of those dead on arrival were also disposed of here. |
