Friedrich Hildebrandt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Friedrich Hildebrandt (born 1898; died 5 November 1948 in Landsberg am Lech) was an SS Obergruppenführer, a Gauleiter and a war criminal in the time of the Third Reich.
The farmworker had several positions bestowed upon him as an early NSDAP activist: Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter (Reich Governor) of Mecklenburg and until 1937 also of Lübeck. In 1948, after sentencing in the Allied Dachau Trials, and specifically in the Airmen's Trial, for contraventions of the Hague Conventions, Friedrich Hildebrandt was put to death.
