~ Reinhard Heydrich |
Reinhard Heydrich (March 7th, 1904 - June 4th, 1942) was a high-ranking German official during the Nazi era. Although it is widely believed that ultimate responsibility for the Holocaust lay with Hitler and Himmler, Heydrich was one of the main architects of the Holocaust during the early years of the war, answering only to Hitler and Himmler in all matters that pertained to the deportation, imprisonment, and extermination of Jews. He was known as the "Hang man" for his cruelty.
Heydrich chaired the 1942 Wannsee Conference, which discussed plans for the deportation and extermination of all Jews (which would be enforced under what would become known as "The Final Solution") in German-occupied territory.
Heydrich was also responsible for the formation of the Einsatzgruppen - one of the first Nazi death squads specifically designed to begin the process of genocide.
He was attacked by British-trained Czech agents on May 27th, 1942 sent to assassinate him in Prague (as part of Operation Anthropoid). He died approximately one week later due to his injuries.
