Where did you read this ?


As far as Rudel and Odessa? The first mention I saw was in 1990, as
part of an Appreciation of likely candidates for organized crime
syndicates in Eastern Europe after the Berlin Wall fell. Rudel's old
NDP crew (Postwar Nazis in Germany) were pretty prominent.
Most recently, where you could find it,
in Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke. Hitler's Priestess: Savitri Devi, the
Hindu-Aryan Myth, and Neo-Nazism. New York: New York University
Press. 1998, reviewed in The American Historical Review, Vol 104, No.3
