Man says he helped Nazi Goering commit suicide
`A former American guard at the Nuremberg trials has come forward to say he believes he provided the poison that Nazi Hermann Goering used to commit suicide hours before his scheduled execution for war crimes, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday.
Herbert Lee Stivers, now 78, was a 19-year-old army private when he took notes and a capsule hidden inside a fountain pen to Goering at the request of two men who said the notorious Nazi general was a very sick man who needed medicine, the newspaper said. [..]
“I felt very bad after his suicide. I had a funny feeling; I didn’t think there was any way he could have hidden it on his body,” Stivers said.’
