Arnold Weiss: Giving Hitler Hell

"This is the story of a man who has stared evil in the eye and held the fates of mass murderers in his hands. It begins at a company picnic, where children are cavorting as their parents dine on healthful salads and low-carb entrees. This is appropriate, in a roundabout way, because alongside the theme of hard, brutal justice, this story also concerns the American dream."

This is the story of Kind Arnold Weiss, as written by Matthew Brzezinski in "Giving Hitler Hell" a major feature in the Washington Post Magazine (July 24, 2005).
