Lohmeyer had survived active duty in both World War I and World War II. A New Testament scholar and theologian, he resisted the rise of Nazi fascism as a member of the Confessing Church. But the Soviet occupation of Germany was even more repressive than Nazi domination. With the exception of correspondence from prison, Lohmeyer was never heard from again. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eBetween the Swastika and the Sickle\u003c\/i\u003e, James R.
