Unit 1012 will honor and always
remember German Pastor, Hermann Maas, every year on September 27, as he passed
away at the age of 93 on that date in 1970. We will remember and honor him for
saving the lives of many Jews during World War II and he rightfully deserves to
be recognized by the State of Israel as Righteous
among the Nations. His story should be an inspiration for us to support
victims’ rights and defend the use of the death penalty.

Hermann Ludwig Maas (5 August 1877,
Gengenbach, Baden – 27 September 1970) was a Protestant minister, a doctor of
theology and named one of the Righteous Among the Nations, a title given
by the Israeli organization for study and remembrance of the Holocaust - Yad
Vashem, for people who helped save the lives of Jews during the Holocaust
without seeking to gain thereby.
