    My father, Capt. Rex Morgan, US Army, was Chief of Mortuaries of the European Theater, during and after WW2. He and his men were responsible for establishing temporary American cemeteries on the continent, several of which became permanent.
    Dad had two big claims to fame in this role. He oversaw General George Patton’s funeral - picking out the casket and dressing the general for burial. Dad can be seen in news reels walking behind the coffin during the funeral procession.
    Dad also attended the Nuremberg hangings and was put in charge of disposing of those remains. The bodies were taken in secret to a crematory in Munich. Dad put Herman Goering, who cheated the hangman by committing suicide by taking cyanide, into the crematory oven first, followed by the others. The cremation process took all day. Dad dispersed the ashes in secret and destroyed the urns with hatchets. My father never liked the decision to hang the men. He thought it set a dangerous precedent. Like many of his generation, he didn't speak much of his WW2 experience. He put that chapter in his life behind him and went on to have a very successful and fascinating life.

"The people? the people can always be brought to the bidding of their leaders. all you have to do is tell them they're being attacked, denounce the peacemaker for lack of patriotism and expose the country to danger. it works the same in any country, whether it be a dictatorship, monarchy, parliament or democratic secular society" --Hermann Goering commander of the German Luftwaffe 1946...

      I pulled guard duty at Spandau in 1973. By that time, only Hess was left. But I saw him take his daily walks and wondered what a lot of others were thinking: "does he know the whereabouts of the stolen Nazi gold that history says was taken by the Nazis?"
      After he died and it was deemed a suicide (when I knew better), it triggered a life-long search for the truth on every aspect of WW2.
      The "crimes against humanity" charge against these prisoners was illegal - it was created for the occasion to use against the defendants. Legally, you can't create a charge to fit a crime that has already been committed - the legal term is "ex post facto" and it's illegal. Something else I found was that the Nuremberg Trials were nothing but a dog-and-pony show. The three allied powers had already decided their fate at the Tehran Conference in 1943 - they were guilty and Stalin wanted to kill 50,000 German officers.
      In the United States, a person is tried in a court that includes a jury of his peers. The Nuremberg Trial had no such peers, and when the judge, jury, and executioner are your enemy, you will never receive a fair trial.

      It didn't happen in a day. Generations of Germans were raised like this. They didn't have a heart. They could kill so many people because they lacked the basic aspects of humanity such as kindness, conscience and respect.

    Regarding "their last words" it is worth mentioning that Gen.Wilhelm Keitel was the only one who explicitly stated that he had taken part in/being part of criminal schweinerei and he regretted that (or something to that effect), I think he is the only one who expressed that and in so doing he was not avoiding the blatant and outright truth, the other handful who articulated some kind of remorse did it in a "muffled" vocabulary (not even Speer delivered something equal aloud), on a graded scale he is the one (possibly together with Speer) who admits guilt to some extent-for a man who showed subservient stupidity (and many less flattering characteristics) on so many occasions he managed to raise himself somewhat during the last days, if any relatives of his are alive today I think this is what they should remember of him.

For me his admission of guilt and regret would depend on when he said the words. Given his weak character he may have said it to avoid execution. However if he made the statement in the knowledge he was to hang it could be taken as genuine, for there would be no point in his lying. Am I wrong or was Keitel's execution botched resulting in a slow, agonising death? A ghastly end, yet I feel no sympathy for this man.

Then second world war was going on. Can any of you please tell me whether he was a Nazi officer or a nice gentleman? He later became the director of a Malayalam film named 'Vellinakshatram(1949)' in Kerala, India. The producers of the film were 'Udaya Studios' in India.

    The timing of the executions is interesting. Albert Pierrepoint, the Official British Executioner, always allowed bodies to hang for half an hour after the drop. When he was drafted in to help execute over a hundred convicted war criminals in a few days, he did so by insisting they built a second gallows and cutting the time between executions form half an hour to 20 minutes. These would seem to be much more frequent assuming they only had one gallows.

      I wouldn't call it methodical. Their executions were botched by a now well-known incompetent and possible fraudster executioner in John C. Woods.
      If you wanted a methodical execution back then you had two realistic options:
      1. Firing Squad---Seldom done to those convicted of war crimes because in the eyes of some, being shot was more honorable than the rope as hanging was seen as dishonorable as it was seen as a fate for common criminals.
      2. Hanging done properly. If one had to hang it was obviously best done properly. The man who perfected hanging to a practical science was Albert Pierrepoint. You went from your cell to Heaven, Hell or whatever beliefs in an afterlife you have if any, in about 90 seconds, two minutes tops if he was hanging you.
      If you must hang, Pierrepoint was the man you wanted to do it. Even some fellow condemned prisoner not yet executed have said that about him.

      I believe some of them did try to hide IIRC but Germany was both destroyed and overrun with allied forces by the end of the war, and high-ranking Nazis were all being hunted by allies. Some of them did stupidly stick around thinking they'd get to take the reins of Germany though. Other prominent Nazis escaped to South America. Some of those (at least one or two but forgot how many) were caught years later by Israeli spies.

      Hans Frank was arrested and attempted suicide twice, Streicher, Sauckel, Rosenberg, Jodl, Seyss-Inquart were arrested.
      Some (counting the defendents like Speer, that did not got executed) were part of the Flensburg Government and were captured by the Allies without possibility to escape or commit suicide.
      Goering was overweight sick and addict on morphine, making escape or even hiding difficult.
      If you wonder why all of them didn't commited suicide before arrest, many were brainwashed thinking that they would be seen as martyr wrongly executed by the ennemi, other hid behind the "I was just following orders" defense, and the "I had no knowledge of the Shoah" defense. (hey, it worked for Speer after all), and in fact, after the suicide of Himmler they were extra careful with cyanide suicides. If I remember well one Nazi succesfully bit his cyanide pill but it was spoiled and it only made him sick.

    First, a few compliments! Your English usage and pronunciation are excellent, and I especially appreciated that you said, “hanged,” instead of “hung,” a mistake made by too many Americans (a picture is hung; a person is hanged). Next, at around 50 seconds, you used the word “PERsecuted,” but the word you should have used is “PROsecuted,” a very subtle difference, I know! The is the best way to explain the difference: “Many former Nazis were PROSECUTED at the Nuremberg trials for PERSECUTING and murdering Jewish people.” Otherwise, your English was beautiful, and I liked the way this information was presented!
