Their only method of communication with the defendants was through translator Howard Triest, a German Jew who had fled Munich and fought as an American soldier in Normandy. Unbeknownst to the defendants, Triest’s parents had perished at Auschwitz. Helen Fry traces the events that took place in Nuremberg prison through the eyes of Triest.
