Josef Blösche
Josef Blösche (12 February 1912 – 29 July 1969) was an Austrian member of the Nazi Party who served in the SS and SD during World War II. Blösche became known to the world as a symbol of the Nazi cruelty inflicted on people within the Warsaw ghetto because of a famous photograph taken during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising which portrays a surrendering little boy in the foreground, and Blösche as the SS man who is facing the boy with a sub-machine gun in hand. He was sentenced to death
