Estonians guarded the Nuremberg Trial
Video Summary
Here is a 100-word summary of the article:
During World War II, Estonia was occupied by the Soviet Union, and many Estonians were forced to serve in the Waffen-SS, fighting on the Eastern Front. After the war, Estonia became an important part of the Nuremberg trials, where former SS soldiers were used to guard war crime suspects, including Germans, Hungarians, and others. The Estonian Guard Company, made up of former SS soldiers, was formed to assist in the trials, and they played a key role in securing the Nuremberg Palace of Justice. The US Army saw an opportunity to use these former SS soldiers, who were fluent in English and German, to guard the trials and supported the Estonian Guard Company, which ultimately led to the end of Estonia’s occupation by the Soviet Union.
