AbstractMakes a case for the significance of research on German emigre veterans during World War II, providing sketches of the careers of K. Frank Korf, Joachim Elbe, Hans Schmitt, and Tom Frazier (born Ulrich Heinicke). The sketches examine their reasons for leaving Germany, "their experiences as immigrants, and their response to the internment of German-Americans." The article "also features their military careers, especially their reactions to being back in Germany, and highlights their special contribution to the war effort in general and opposition to Hitler in particular."
