Human Swastika

Josef Blösche was a Nazi war criminal who held the rank of SS-Rottenführer. Born in Friedland in Austria-Hungary, Blösche began his life working as a farmhand and a waiter at his father's hotel. After Nazi Germany took over the Sudetenland, Blösche became a willing servant of the regime.

In September 1941, he began serving as a guard at the Warsaw Ghetto and was in charge of the wooden bridge between Warsaw and the ghetto. He became known as "Frankenstein" for his monstrous behavior. Here he is on the right of this famous photograph...
