Three SS officers and war criminals socialize on the grounds of the SS retreat outside of Auschwitz, at “Solahütte,” 1944

From left to right they are: Richard Baer (Commandant of Auschwitz, 1911-1963), Dr. Josef Mengele (1911-1979), and Rudolf Hoess (the former Auschwitz Commandant, 1901-1947). Hoess was the Commandant when Zyklon B (hydrogen cyanide) was initiated as a means of killing prisoners.
