Alfred Jodl (born May 10, 1890, Würzburg, Germany—died October 16, 1946, Nürnberg) was Chief of the Armed Forces High Command Operations Staff in Nazi Germany.[1] In this capacity Jodl directed all military campaigns and participated in planning and authorizing the brutal methods that the German Armed Forces employed while waging war. Jodl was found guilty at Nuremberg Trials on all four counts (conspiracy, crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity) and sentenced to death. He was hanged on October 16, 1946.[2]
