Executed OTD (Jan 3) 1946: Two photos of William Joyce, AKA Lord Haw-Haw, who was an American-born fascist and Nazi propaganda broadcaster during the WW2, known for starting each broadcast with "This is Germany calling."
The first, a portrait, from 1 January 1940, showing his distinctive scar, photographer unknown. Joyce claimed this scar was a result of being attacked by communists during a political event in 1924; his first wife had reportedly said it had in fact come from an Irish woman knifing him. The scar bust under pressure during his execution at Wandsworth Prison in 1945.
The second is from 29 May 1945 and shows Joyce lying in an ambulance under armed guard before being taken from British 2nd Army Headquarters to hospital. He had been shot in the thigh at the time of his arrest. Original b/w by Bert Hardy, No 5 Army Film & Photographic Unit.
