He had a small house (below) built in France and moved there in 1972 with his wife, living off his service pension and doing translation work for a publisher. His mailbox was on the wooden pole on the left and was sometimes ransacked. Nobody was ever caught or admitted responsibility.His body was badly charred and an autopsy found smoke in his lungs, hed gone down fighting, firing his.22 rifle and a pistol. His remains were interred in the Peiper family plot in Landsberg, Bavaria. Ive underlined the words Emordet am 14.7.76 in Frankreich (Murdered 14.7.76 in France). Unlike other Nazis, Peiper wasnt hung for alleged war crimes which must have rankled the French, and when he decided to go live on French soil it must have made a lot of them hot under the collar. Perthaps he had a death wish complex brought on by guilt feelings at having survived the war when many of his comrades didnt, hence his going to live in France and making no attempt to disguise himself or even change his name, and his house was located in thick woods making it easy for assassins to sneak up; almost as if he sent out invitations.

You could even say Rommel actually condoned atrocities(or turned a blind eye) during his time in Africa as commander-in-chief. And turning a blind eye is as bad as actually commiting crimes in my opinion. Which doesnt change the fact that even the SS wasnt just made up of primiive criminals. Whats the Soviet Union and the avegae Red Army soldier for you then. He has already accused Cargol of being a Nazi sympathizer simply for his Avatar. You have NO chance of having a logical discussion about it with him so I recommend that you shelve the topic before it gets ugly. Mitsubishi 4g18s workshop manualLord Bane.
