Before the evening was over, one of them, Corporal Johannes Kunze - accused of treason - would lie in a pool of his own blood, savagely beaten to death by his fellow prisoners. <p>Within three months, five men present in the mess hall would be accused, tried, and sentenced to death for the murder of Johannes Kunze a sentence carried out in July, 1945, at Forth Leavenworth, Kansas. Here, for the first time, the remarkable true story behind these events is revealed: the stark conditions in the POW camps; the tactics used by military intelligence to temp informants and turn the prisoners against each other; the one-sided legal battle dominated by a sharp young military prosecutor, Lieutenant Colonel Leon Jaworski (of future Watergate fame); and the passions and politics of war which insured that for Kunze and his accused killers, there could be no mercy.</p> <p>This account of the unjust execution of five German POWs is "very well-written, controversial, and disturbing" (Nelson DeMille). And its revealing portrait of U.S. and Germa
