Wow! Quite a story. Did you catch the footnote at the bottom about Hitler's sister?

In 1947, Albert rejoined his family in Salzburg. Ironically, given his exoneration, he was unable to get work because of his family's Nazi history. Increasingly bitter, he turned to drink.
He survived on food parcels sent to him by the many Jews he'd helped escape from the Gestapo, but died at 71 of pancreatic cancer in December 1966, his life relegated to a footnote of his brother's brutal history.

Bit of a bitter end for him, he should of done what Oskar Schindler did and go live with Jews till everything calmed down.

Still no kindness goes unpunished

Saving anybody's life is a noble act saving more than 30 is even more.

The one who watches over all will make sure his deeds would not go unpunished
