On this day, 24 May 1910, German shipyard worker August Landmesser was born. He is best known as probably being the worker defiantly refusing to perform a Nazi salute at a ship launch. Falling in love with a Jewish woman, he fell foul of Nazi race laws. Refusing to end the relationship, he was jailed and conscripted to a penal battalion where he was killed. His partner was sent to a women’s concentration camp and killed.
