Hermann Hoyer

military Germany

Hermann Hoyer was a German sergeant stationed in Greece during World War II, and his name has come into the spotlight due to the discovery of photographs purportedly taken by him, which document the execution of 200 Greeks by Nazi occupiers in Kaisariani in 1944. These images, recently found on eBay, have sparked outrage and concern in Greece, prompting the government to investigate their authenticity and consider acquiring them as historical documents.
