The Sentencing and Execution of the Nazi War Criminals, 1946

The Sentencing and Execution of the Nazi War Criminals, 1946
"Goering came down first and strode into his cell, his face pale and frozen, his eyes popping..." The reaction of the defendants at the Nuremberg Trials gives insight into the mindset of the Nazi hierarchy.

The Defendants React to their Sentences:

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

Airey Neave in his Book on the Nurnemburg trials gives a good description of the defendants as they receive their sentence!
