Reinhard Heydrich along with Heinrich Himmler, whose deputy he was,
will always be regarded as one of the most ruthless of the Nazi
elite. Even Hitler described him as a man with an iron heart'. He
established his fearsome reputation in the 1930s, as head of the
Sicherheitsdienst (SD), the intelligence organisation which
neutralised opposition to the Nazi Party by murder and deportation.
He organised Kristalnacht and played a leading role in the
Holocaust, chairing the 1942 Wannsee Conference which formalised
plans for the Final Solution'. In addition, as head of the
Einsatzgruppen murder squads in Eastern Europe he was responsible
for countless murders. Appointed Deputy Reich-Protector of Bohemia
and Moravia, he died of wounds inflicted by British trained SOE
operatives in Prague in May 1942. The reprisals that followed his
assassination were extreme by even the terrible standards of Nazi
ruthlessness. Heydrich's shocking and leading role in the Nazi
regime is graphically portrayed in this Images of War book.
