- Sobibor death camp commandant, Gustav Wagner (estimated number exterminated at Sobibor was 250,000), plus many, many other murderous SS and Gestapo to safety via the Vatican run Ratlines
- Allen Dulles negotiated with SS General Wolf for “Operation Sunrise” - a programme recruiting all of the SS stationed in Italy to move to Latin America.
- The Pentagon recruited numerous former Nazis and SS to work under Gehlen’s “Org” in Potsdam which became part of the fledgling CIA before becoming the basis of post war German intelligence in 1955.
The entire Galizien Waffen SS Division (7000 - 8000 battle hardened men) was brought to the UK in 1947 and then hived off to various countries, Canada, Australia, South Africa etc. They were muscle to use in the cold war.
And this just off the top of my head.
And speaking of "off the top of my head," I assume that the Galizien Division included world-class snipers.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
