I am trying to find someone that may be able to remember this story. I believe it happened in Mauthausen or one of the subcamps but am not sure which one. My father Burdette "Bud" Baxter was in the 56th Armored Engineer Battalion, 11th division, Co. A that helped liberate either Mauthausen or one or more of the subcamps. What happened, according to my father, was that the prisoners identified one of the Germans that was trying to pose as a civilian when the nearby town was forced to bury the dead. The prisoners held the German down, cut his head off with a shovel, and then burned his head. I have a picture of this. Can anyone help me with this as I have been searching for the camp my father helped liberate. Thank you.
