He threw a wooden post ripped from a fence at a Nazi Storm Trooper in self-defense. , The next morning a newspaper said the'. Nazi, had been "murdered.',' Frightened, Mende fled the country,' joining the For eign Legion. Then Arab friends "smuggled" "him onto a freighter bound for Australia. When World War II broke out, he ,was in Peru. ; ,f , ; He sent letters with money to the Nazi's family. Then he feared the letters were intercepted and he fled, to - Brizil, making a four tune in real' estate. , Recently,, he said, his worries caused a nervous breakdown, and after recovering he decided to return to Germany. ' Investigation by police showed the newspaper which had reported the death of the Nazi printed a correction the day after Mende fled, saying the man had been injured.
