Skorzeny was interred for 2 years before being tried as a war criminal at the Dachau Trials.
Later he was interred at an internment camp in Darmstadt awaiting trial there.
In July 1948, he escaped, with the help of 3 former SS officers wearing American military police uniforms.
In 1963, he was allegedly recruited by the Israeli Mossad.
I've known about Skorzeny since the 1980's because he was talked about frequently in a weekly political radio program on KFJC-FM
(Los Altos Hills, CA) called "One Step Beyond" (Great program, I listened to it every week and taped it often)
Over the radio, they read from newspaper & magazine articles, and books.
(They were talking about Iran-Contra before it became known to the American public)
