Thomas Heller Cooper, 26, who beasted of killing several Jews in Russia during the Nazi invasion, today stood before a London court to face formal charges of high treason.
Cooper, who joined Mosley’s British Union of Fascists in 1938, enlisted in the Hitler Division of the Waffen SS in 1939. After being wounded in Russia, he turned his talents towards recruiting British prisoners of wars for the British Free Corps, a group of Britons fighting as volunteers for the Nazis.
