The
notorious Nazi Hermann Goering aided Adolf Hitler's rise to power and
for years he was second in importance only to Hitler in The Third Reich.
As founder of the Gestapo, Hermann Goering was instrumental in creating
the first concentration camps for political dissidents and a prominent
leader of the Final Solution, the murder of Jews. Next to Hitler
the man who played the largest part in the shaping of the Nazi inferno ..

his younger brother Albert Goering loathed all of Nazism's inhumanity and
at the risk of his career, fortune and life, used his name and connections
to save many Jews and gentiles.
The parallel with is inevitable. The story of Albert Goering, however, is
almost unknown - he was shoved into obscurity by the enormity of his
brother's crimes.

recently in British archives, documents that Albert Goering actually saved
many lives from the horrors of Holocaust.
