Adolf Eichmann was a German Nazi lieutenant colonel and one of the major organizers of the Holocaust. He was tasked by Reinhard Heydrich (general/lieutenant general) with facilitating and managing the logistics involved in the mass deportation of Jews to ghettos and extermination camps in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe during World War II. In 1960, he was captured in Argentina by the Mossad, Israel's intelligence service. He was found guilty of war crimes in a widely publicised trial in Israel, and was hanged in 1962.
"I hope that all of you will follow me," (to the men escorting him to the gallows) but generally reported as "Long live Germany. Long live Argentina. Long live Austria. These are the three countries with which I have been most connected and which I will not forget. I greet my wife, my family, and my friends. I am ready. We'll meet again soon, as is the fate of all men. I die believing in God." His last meal: A bottle of red wine.
