I suddenly recalled a dream I had in the 1987 – 1988 school year when I was in art school in Toronto completing my Graphic Design diploma.
The dream was as if I was right there seeing and recording it all: what looked like a man wearing a high-ranking Nazi uniform coldly executing 3 men kneeling at the edge of a pit. Each was shot in the back of the head with his pistol and then unceremoniously shoved into the pit with a pushing-kicking foot motion. The men being executed appeared to be wearing British or Canadian soldiers’ uniforms and their helmets were that “flying saucer” style that the British and Canadian troops had.
A bona fide PL snippet witnessing the real thing? I am still inconclusive at this stage, but it would appear the date is in the summer of ’44 and the location in northern France or in neighboring Belgium.
I can remember waking up from that and thinking, why am I being shown that in a dream vision? Later that same day the news headlines screamed about a Nazi SS Brigadier leader named Wilhelm Mohnke having coldly executed 3 Canadian soldiers at the edge of a bomb crater. According to the news other Canadian veterans were campaigning to have the still surviving Mr. Mohnke arrested and prosecuted, which was done without success.
The news headlines described exactly what I had dreamed: 3 Canadian soldiers coldly executed and then being kicked down into a bomb crater, the story being related in a news write-up by a surviving witness. That specific event shows just 3 of several dozens of Canadian soldiers Wilhelm Mohnke had slaughtered and so far, I haven’t been able to trace the exact location. WWII history experts, I welcome your knowledge.

SS Colonel Wilhelm Mohnke was reportedly involved in more than one atrocity. A quick-tempered and harsh man — even toward other SS — he was generally disliked, even by his comrades. On June 11, he interrogated three Canadian prisoners and, after shouting at them and gesturing in anger, had them taken to the edge of a deep bomb crater and shot. (source: Wikiquote)
