...Hans Clemens, 61, who peered with interest at an exhibit table covered with the tools of his trade: cameras, tape recorders, microscopes, radios, films and suitcases with secret compartments. As he told it, Clemens had been a pianist as a youth in Dresden, but changed keys and became a Nazi police official in 1933. He headed the Dresden office of the dreaded SS security service. During World War II he commanded an execution squad in Italy that killed 330 hostages and for his savagery won the title "The Tiger of Como...
Champagne in Streams. One major service Clemens performed for the Russians was to recruit a former SS colleague, Heinz Felfe. Cool and articulate, Defendant Felfe, 45, told the judges that he too was an ardent Nazi, had worked his way up into Heinrich Himmler's state security bureau.

The crowd seemed bent on storming the palace but encountered massed lines of bobbies blocking the way. Police helmets clattered across sidewalks, fists flew, traffic stalled, and prancing police horses bowled over crowds. Rioters fought off cops from atop a doubledeck bus. A few youths who made it to the Mall were stopped by flying tackles...
...family moved from Germany to Austria, where she spent most of her childhood. As a girl, she supposedly belonged to a Hitlerite youth group. In school in Italy during her late teens, at a time when three of her brothers served in the Wehrmacht, she was heard to defend Nazi Germany. That is about the only fact her critics can cite to support their case. After marrying Paul in 1938, Frederika fled Greece under Nazi bombardment, lived in exile in Egypt and South Africa until...
