... that Franz Leuninger, a Catholic trade unionist in Silesia who ran for the Reichstag in 1933 opposing the Nazis, was executed on 1 March 1945? Source: several
This is just a comment but I'm not sure why the hook needs to focus on his execution date when the hook could easily focus on the fact that he was executed in the first place. Narutolovehinata5tccsdnew 07:54, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
Well, how else would you factually say that it was extra cruel because the war was almost over? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:02, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
Maybe "... was executed six months before World War II ended?" Armadillopteryx 22:30, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
@Armadillopteryx: your suggestion is a good one. It's a very interesting article. I'll do the review.--Maleschreiber (talk) 22:12, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
