Re: Execution of German Spy, WWII
In that climate / time either side caught a spy they were shot they were considered very dangerous as one could undermind a whole mission and hundreds of lives. Of course now I look at those faces and feel for them but lets not forget if we were caught it would have been a bullet to the head but you raped first.

Re: Execution of German Spy, WWII
If you're not wearing your nation's uniform or you're wearing your enemy's uniform, you're no longer a soldier fighting under the 'protection' of your nation's flag, under the Geneva convention you're not recognized as a solider, but as a saboteur or spy. He got what was coming to him. |

Re: Execution of German Spy, WWII
Your right I understand why they did it .. I'm just saying Germany was like 5 or 6 months away from total unconditional surrender at the time .. Those young men didn't have to be executed after they were found out ..

Re: Execution of German Spy, WWII
It's war (obviously) and although the end was in sight, they didn't know when it would end and frankly being close to the end of war isn't a mitigating factor. They were spies and/or saboteurs and in war that's how they're dealt with.
