> A Tennessee man who served as an armed guard in a Nazi concentration camp at Neuengamme will be deported to Germany after his appeal was dismissed.
> The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) revealed it dismissed the appeal from Friedrich Karl Berger on Thursday, just one day before the 75th anniversary of the start of the Nuremberg trials of Nazi officials and soldiers.
> The 94-year-old had attempted to overturn a February 28 decision made by Immigration Court Judge Rebecca Holt to deport Berger to Germany, where he is still a resident and continues to receive a pension 'for wartime service.'
> Holt determined that Berger could be deported under the 1978 Holtzman Amendment to the Immigration and Nationality Act due to his 'willing service as an armed guard of prisoners at a concentration camp where persecution took place.'
