Letters to David

Alan
Heath

of Warsaw, Poland, has information, Monday, April
25, 2005, on the killing of German SS officers in
Czechoslovakia: Kammler may have been one

SS
General Hans Kammler was shot?

I WAS interested to see Simon
Gunson’s interesting letter concerning the fate of SS General Hans
Kammler
[Himmler’s chief construction engineer].

On May 5, 1945 about 170 Germans were summarily shot by the NKVD in Jicin, Czechoslovakia, including Richard Thomalla who was the architect of the Belzec and Sobibor death camps.
Some of those shot were normal soldiers, others were SS and functionaries. I had the impression that Kammler could have been of those who died on that day.

I personally feel that Kammler was too big a name to have got away and remain unheard of for so long.

The desire to catch Nazis is not as great, however, as may appear from the popular press. I have tried to trace SS Hauptscharführer
Lorenz Hackenholdt — the person responsible for the gas chambers of the Bug camps and whose name figured on the Stiftung Hackenholdt — the gas chambers at Belzec. Last month I ascertained that his wife had died, and I went to the address where she had lived ; no-one had apparently even bothered looking.
