Last known photo of Andrew Mckenzie British mercenary. He was later executed by firing squad. 1976




The 1976 Angola Mercenaries were a group of foreign personnel recruited to take part in the Angolan civil war.

The Luanda mercenary trial took place in Luanda, Angola from 11 June to 28 June 1976. It involved 13 foreign mercenaries who had been captured by Angolan government forces while fighting for the FNLA in February 1976.

The trial concluded on 28 June with four of the prisoners sentenced to death, while the others received sentences of between 16 and 30 years.

Gearhart, Georgiou, McKenzie and Barker were executed by firing squad on 10 July, after Angolan President Agostinho Neto confirmed the death sentences passed by the tribunal on June 28, in spite of appeals for clemency from Queen Elizabeth, the International Commission of Jurists and US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

Acker and Grillo were released on 15 November 1982 as part of a prisoner exchange. The remaining seven men were released in February 1984.

Reasons why it's possible to survive firing squad

There are two reasons for this; one, why not headshot, and two, why not just a shooter? Military firing squad. They do not shoot the head because, while effective at killing a person, shooting the head will usually destroy any identifiable facial features. This is not desirable, as it means that you cannot have an open-casket funeral (if you are inclined to be magnanimous) or display your body as proof that you are, in fact, dead. They have a multiple shooter firing squad to give everyone diffusion of responsibility. Have you ever wondered why the Nazis went to the trouble of building camps and gas chambers instead of simply machine-gunning their victims? The Third Reich did some research into the "best" way to commit genocide and discovered that, even with all the conditioning to view Jews and undesirables as "subhuman," shooting unarmed people tended to take a toll on a soldier's mental health. . Unless the man in the image above is a literal psychopath, he wi...

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps

How common were instances of sexual abuse in Nazi concentration camps. The accounts that rap£ or prostitution was common, Were the guards were given "free reign" over the prisoners given view of them as subhuman The Nazis sort of developed a network of state-controlled brothels during the war. This included both the civilian and military brothels. The Nazis even set up brothels for the forced labor inmates that helped with the German war effort as incentives for higher production from prisoners in camps. Back then these brothels were suppose to serving several needs. For the soldiers that were far away from home, the Nazis thought that having these brothels would reduce the possibility of rape in occupied lands and reducing the sexual relations with impure local women or forced laborer's, as well. Heck, the Nazis tried to use these brothel women to cure homosexuality as a treatment with male prisoners that were gay. Regular German women were exempt from serving in these b...

The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other

 The prisoners in concentration camps have sex with each other Steady on. Nearly all concentration camps were single-sex, and at those that held both men and women the sexes were usually kept separate, though at Auschwitz III (Monowitz) and possibly also some other sub-camps they worked together. At extermination camps (where the sexes were not separated) most of the prisoners were killed within 24 hours of arrival. Prisoners did not have privacy. Remember that at the time most people had a horror of same-sex relations, especially between men. However, some Kapos and even guards forced prisoners to have sex with them. In Night Elie Wiesel relates how he found his Kapo having sex with a female prisoner, and he (Wiesel) was given 25 lashes for finding them having sex.* In the Women’s Camp at least one guard forced another woman to have sex with her, and at many camps there was a piepel (camp bum boy). *He also describes the hanging of the piepel of a Blockältester ( ‘block senior’). ...
