07.44 american crew captured by Germans

[Larry deZeng]

Yes, the 9 July 1944 interrogation you posted is for an air crew captured in the Iron Gate or Turnu Severin (today: Drobeta - Turnu Severin) area. But Waldheim did a number of other interrogations, too.

I guess we share a common interest in him. I was hired by his U.S. attorneys in Washington in 1988 and worked on his case off and on for 6 or 7 months. I spoke with Waldheim on the telephone for 15 minutes or so and corresponded back and forth with him. I received a lot of information from W as I attempted to determine his level of culpability, if any, in the charges against him. Interesting case.

Ho Larry,

Than i can`t add anything.
The attached Photo is the only one i know (from bajurtov.wordpress.com)
Very good the cartoon as well

Yes, that photo was the one that brought an end to his evasiveness. The cartoon sums up W's nature quite well. Like many back then, he was definitely an opportunist. Most young men in their twenties from certain backgrounds are ambitious and opportunistic, so I can't fault him too much for that.
