World War Two, Allie d forces faced a series of bombings and attacks in occupied Germany. Nazi loyalists attempted to derail the rebuilding process by killing any Germans collaborating with the enemy. And the mysterious SS-Werewolves u nderground organization boasted of the coming rebirth of the Party. Today, little is known about the activities of the Werewolves and other g roups who opposed the Allied forces during this postwar period. And whil e the Nazi resistance effort did eventually fail, many of its methods an d the harsh Allied response to them have real world implications for the present situation in Iraq. "The Last Nazis" will explore how the SS-Werewolves terrorized military a nd civilian targets behind enemy lines such as industrial plants, fuel d epots, supply lines, and stray soldiers. We'll hear from a former Werewolf as he describes his motivation and role in the guerilla movement. In addition we'll travel to Aachen, where Wer ewolves assassinated the pro-Allied mayor, and Penzberg, the site of the "Night of Murder" - a senseless rampage aimed at preventing any German collaboration in which more than a dozen German civilians were killed. We'll also explore the Allied attempt to purge Germany's Nazi past throug h denazification tribunals - an increasingly unpopular set of trials tha t was hit by a wave of bombings.
