    Hans Jüttner

    (born 2 March 1894 in Schmiegel, died 24 May 1965 in Bad Tölz)

    Hans Jüttner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    In June 1942, after having been promoted to SS Obergruppenführer, Jüttner was also given the military rank of General. On 30 January 1943, Jüttner reached the high point of his career when he became Leader of the SS Main Leadership Office.

    Heinrich Himmler appointed Jüttner Chief of "Army Armament and Commander of the Reserve Army". Hereafter, Jüttner was Himmler's deputy in this area of command.

    Jüttner was one of those responsible for building the many prisoner of war camps in which Soviet prisoners of war were held.

    It is unclear from the little available information what Jüttner did after the war.

    --------------

    "Interesting" that the Soviets were not interested in getting him to court and hanged?? Even if he was not guilty of the early war POW crimes.
