SS-Obersturmführer Heinrich Bergmann
He was head of the Kripo in Estonia during the genocide of Jews there in 1941.
Does anyone know what his post-war fate was? I can't seem to find any info on him anywhere, other than he was a member of the Kripo & Sonderkommando 1a.
Cheers.

That's ok, Mikedc. I assume if there's no info on AHF already, no one's probably even heard of him.Mikedc wrote:Sorry Ryan,
Don't have him in my files.

It mentions him in Raul Hilberg's third volume of "Destruction of the European Jews" as a footnote. It was in a communique between an Estonian war criminal, Jaan Viik (who was executed in Estonia in 1961/2) and himself, concerning the murder of Gypsies in Harku.
I assume if he was in Estonia, there's a good chance the Soviets caught up with him and executed him but who knows.....
Hey Ryan,
You're right, we can't have it all.
But at least I also did find his name in the following article:

The previously used official German name Reval (Russian: Ревель) was replaced after Estonia became independent in 1918–1920
