Bernhard Waber

[1] After the war, he continued to serve in the army of the First Austrian Republic, achieving the rank of major general in 1936.

But less than week after the Anschluss (Austria being absorbed into Nazi Germany), he returned to active duty in on 17 March 1938, with the German Air Force.

[1] He was promoted to lieutenant general in 1940, and became commander of the Air Region VIII, based in Breslau, in 1941, shortly before the German invasion of the Soviet Union.

The other three were tried and acquitted, but Waber was judged guilty of "severe mismanagement in his headquarters and staff and rampant defeatism throughout his region" and given the death penalty.

[1][3] [4] This incident further weakened Air Force morale, and engendered anger at Göring, who after all had himself engaged in massive looting during the war.
