CONTRARY TO THE FABRICATIONS OF ROLF HOCHHUTH, A PLAYWRIGHT WHO WAS A MEMBER OF THE HITLER YOUTH, AND JOHN CORNWELL, A JOURNALIST WHO IS "ROLF HOCHHUTH REDIVIVUS" IN HIS CRITICISM OF POPE PIUS XII DURING WORLD WAR II, THERE ARE THE FOLLOWING HISTORICAL TESTIMONIES EMPHASIZING THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT PERIOD OF HISTORY:
