For carrying out his orders.

and were either executed or told to commit suicide while in jail

Starting with Erwin Rommel. But there were many others.

I think gets a bit of a pass on this list, he was part of the plot to kill Hitler and Rommel was known as a brilliant and mostly honorable commander. The story about how his company happened upon a bunch of dead allied troops and he had his own people lay them to rest shows he did have some honor. Just like the German fighter pilot who escorted a busted up US Bomber back to the English line instead of shooting him out the sky.

Yea war is shit, I am totally anti-war, but in the god-awful mess of war sometimes you do see real humanity. Had Rommel survived the war I don't believe he would have been sentenced to death with those other guys.
