Nazis’ Secret Killing Squads


The Nazis’ Secret Killing Squads. A & E Documentary, Bill Kurtis Investigative Reports, 1999. The film focuses upon the Einsatzgruppen (special action groups) and their SS leadership’s prosecution at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal by the heroic Benjamin Ferencz. This documentary reveals the Einsatzgruppen, the mobile killing units that accompanied the German army as it invaded the Soviet Union in 1941. It tells the story of a hidden chapter of the Holocaust not known to many persons. I have been showing it to my World History students for 18 years. This exceptional film has been unavailable anywhere on the Internet until today. Due to the wonderful efforts of a long-time friend and colleague, Ryan C. Underwood, that tragedy has been rectified. Watch it before it is suppressed or removed by YouTube and thrust down the Orwellian Memory Hole.
