1904

Edmund Veesenmayer (12 November 1904 – 24 December 1977) was a high-ranking German SS functionary and Holocaust perpetrator during the Nazi era.

He significantly contributed to the Holocaust in Hungary and in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH).

Veesenmayer was a subordinate of Ernst Kaltenbrunner and Joachim von Ribbentrop, and worked with Adolf Eichmann.

1938

Veesenmayer served on the advisory committee of the German transportation firm Schenker AG, which played a key role in moving Nazi plunder throughout Europe between 1938 and 1945.

Here, he arranged (with Ustashe leader Slavko Kvaternik) the proclamation of the Independent State of Croatia, four hours before the Germans entered the city.

What Ante Pavelic meant by "independence", as Veesenmeyer reported to Berlin, was firstly to obtain German recognition of Croatia; and secondly, an opportunity to thank Hitler in person and promise him "to live and die for the Führer".
