Walter Bohne

A shipbuilder by profession, he joined the Young Communist League of Germany (KJVD) in 1921 and the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) shortly afterwards.

He moved to Hamburg in 1928 and was active in the Red Sport International.

He was arrested and imprisoned again in 1942, but managed to escape after the bombing of Hamburg in July 1943.

On 5 January 1944, three Gestapo officers tried to arrest Bohne in Hamburg; when trying to defend himself, he was shot to death.
