Not sure which one you mean, Andreas. As I mentioned before, David Irving suggested that the Malmedy corpses were 'placed' there but this seems highly unlikely. KG Peiper were accused of many 'atrocities' which simply never happened.

For sure, in the confused conditions of the end of the war in Europe, many regrettable things occurred about which we will never now know the truth.

For instance, the very famous US National Archive photo of German guards at Dachau on April 29, 1945 'lying down' while a US machine gunner 'fires over their heads'. Are they alive? Dead? Even with an on-the-spot photo it is very difficult to tell exactly what is going on. Again, Irving has used this picture to support his own agenda.
