Adolf Eichmann walked west toward Salzburg. He did this for several days until he was caught by an American patrol. He told the soldiers that his name was Corporal Adolf Barth. He was a brought to a hastily erected camp where he escaped that very night. He made it to Salzburg where he hid out for a few days.
Eichmann was raised in Linz Austria by a father who was a middle class manager. Linz was also Hitler's hometown. Eichmann joined the Nazi party in 1932 and enlisted in the SD. He joined the Jewish affairs office and began to study Zionism. He traveled to Palestine in 1937 and then became the SD expert on Jewish affairs.
In 1938, Eichmann arrived in Vienna when Germany occupied Austria. He was sent by the SD to deal with the Austrian Jews. He arrested key Jewish leaders and organized the emigration of the Jewish population. For this he was promoted to First Lieutenant. Then he was sent to Czechoslovakia.
