The U.S. Board of Immigration Appeals upheld a 1997 order to deport a 77-year- old retired foundry supervisor for covering up his past as a guard at Nazi concentration camps during World War II. The order directed that Ferdinand Hammer, of Sterling Heights, Mich., be deported to his native Croatia. In 1996, Hammer was stripped of his U.S. citizenship for concealing his Nazi past when he applied for citizenship in 1963.
