workingclasshistory:

On this day, 18 October 1977, the Red Army Faction (aka the Baader-Meinhof group) killed Martin Schleyer, former Nazi war criminal and SS officer who was also head of the German Employers Association known for his tough opposition to unions and strikes. He had been kidnapped by the group demanding an exchange for 11 RAF prisoners. However when three of the prisoners were found dead, the RAF shot Schleyer. Schleyer had served time as a prisoner of war for his SS activities, but he got a shorter sentence by lying about his rank and pretending to be more junior than he was.
We have made available this extensive, two-volume documentary history of the group here: https://shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/all/red-army-faction https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1557785044406640/?type=3
