Question: Who was a commander that was a prominent politician in Nazi Germany?
Context: The Wehrmacht (] , lit.  "defence force") was the unified armed forces of Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1946.  It consisted of the "Heer" (army), the "Kriegsmarine" (navy) and the "Luftwaffe" (air force).  The designation "Wehrmacht" for Nazi Germany's military replaced the previously used term, "Reichswehr" (1919–35), and was the manifestation of Nazi Germany's efforts to rearm the nation to a greater extent than the Treaty of Versailles permitted. SS-Oberabschnitt Süd, often translated as "SS-District South" or "SS-Group South", was a division strength command of the "Allgemeine-SS" and the oldest SS-division in continuous existence from the inception of the SS in the late 1920s to the downfall of Nazi Germany in 1945.  One of its most notable commanders was Rudolf Hess who served as an early SS leader after which he was better known as the Deputy Führer of Nazi Germany. Heinrich Luitpold Himmler (] ; 7 October 1900 – 23 May 1945) was "Reichsführer" of the "Schutzstaffel" (Protection Squadron; SS), and a leading member of the Nazi Party (NSDAP) of Germany.  Nazi leader Adolf Hitler briefly appointed him a military commander and later Commander of the Replacement (Home) Army and General Plenipotentiary for the administration of the entire Third Reich ("Generalbevollmächtigter für die Verwaltung").  Himmler was one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany and one of the people most directly responsible for the Holocaust. Kurt Wilhelm Albert Karl Agricola (15 August 1889 – 27 December 1955) was a general in the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany during World War II who held senior level occupational rear-security commands in the occupied Soviet Union.  A native of Saxony, Agricola entered army service in 1908 and served during World War I.  During the interwar era, he held staff assignments and continued to rise through the army's ranks in the Wehrmacht of Nazi Germany.  His career ended stalled in January 1939, when he was sent into retirement on political grounds because of his marriage to Martha born Hahn, a Jewish woman.  Reactivated again upon the start of World War II, Agricola received exclusively positions behind the front line.  As rear area commander of the 2nd Army in the occupied Soviet union during 1941–43, Agricola brought changes in the Wehrmacht's harsh occupation policies and was successful in maintaining control of his area of occupied territory from Soviet partisans.  Shortly after the war's end, he was arrested by Soviet authorities, convicted of war crimes and remained in captivity for a decade.  One of the last German prisoners in the Soviet Union, he was released in October 1955 and died shortly thereafter in West Germany. Catholic bishops in Nazi Germany differed in their responses to the rise of Nazi Germany, World War II, and the Holocaust during the years 1933–1945.  In the 1930s, the Episcopate of the Catholic Church of Germany comprised 6 Archbishops and 19 bishops while German Catholics comprised around one third of the population of Germany served by 20,000 priests.  In the lead up to the 1933 Nazi takeover, German Catholic leaders were outspoken in their criticism of Nazism.  Following the Nazi takeover, the Catholic Church sought an accord with the Government, was pressured to conform, and faced persecution.  The regime had flagrant disregard for the Reich concordat with the Holy See, and the episcopate had various disagreements with the Nazi government, but it never declared an official sanction of the various attempts to overthrow the Hitler regime.  Ian Kershaw wrote that the churches "engaged in a bitter war of attrition with the regime, receiving the demonstrative backing of millions of churchgoers.  Applause for Church leaders whenever they appeared in public, swollen attendances at events such as Corpus Christi Day processions, and packed church services were outward signs of the struggle of ... especially of the Catholic Church - against Nazi oppression".  While the Church ultimately failed to protect its youth organisations and schools, it did have some successes in mobilizing public opinion to alter government policies. Erich Priebke (29 July 1913 – 11 October 2013) was a German mid-level SS commander in the SS police force (SiPo) of Nazi Germany.  In 1996 he was convicted of war crimes in Italy, for participating in the Ardeatine massacre in Rome on 24 March 1944.  335 Italian civilians (among them 75 Italians of Jewish ancestry) were killed in retaliation for a partisan attack that killed 33 men of the German SS Police Regiment Bozen.  Priebke was one of the men held responsible for this mass execution.  After the defeat of Nazi Germany, he received help from a bishop stationed in Rome and fled to Argentina on a Vatican passport, where he lived for over 50 years. Albrecht Brandi (20 June 1914 – 6 January 1966) was a German U-boat commander in Nazi Germany's "Kriegsmarine" during World War II.  Together with Wolfgang Lüth, he was the only "Kriegsmarine" sailor who was awarded with the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds.  The Knight's Cross (German: "Ritterkreuz" ), and its variants were the highest awards in the military and paramilitary forces of Nazi Germany during World War II.  Brandi is credited with the sinking of eight merchant ships for a total of  gross register tons (GRT) , one auxiliary warship of  GRT , and three warships of 5000 LT . During the final weeks of the Third Reich and the war in Europe, many civilians, government officials and military personnel throughout Nazi Germany committed suicide.  Aside from high-ranking Nazi officials like Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, Heinrich Himmler, Philipp Bouhler and Martin Bormann, many others chose " Selbstmord" (German: "Self-murder" ) rather than accept the defeat of Germany.  Studies have shown that the suicides were influenced through Nazi propaganda (reaction to the suicide of Adolf Hitler), the tenets of the Nazi Party, and the anticipated reprisals following the Allied occupation of Nazi Germany.  For example in April 1945, at least 1,000 people killed themselves and others within 72 hours as the Red Army neared the East German town of Demmin. Rudolf Walter Richard Hess (Heß in German; 26 April 1894 – 17 August 1987), was a prominent politician in Nazi Germany.  Appointed Deputy Führer to Adolf Hitler in 1933, he served in this position until 1941, when he flew solo to Scotland in an attempt to negotiate peace with the United Kingdom during World War II.  He was taken prisoner and eventually was convicted of crimes against peace, serving a life sentence until his suicide. Johanna Maria Magdalena "Magda" Goebbels (née Ritschel; 11 November 1901 – 1 May 1945) was the wife of Nazi Germany's Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels.  A prominent member of the Nazi Party, she was a close ally, companion and political supporter of Adolf Hitler.  Some historians refer to her as the unofficial "First Lady" of Nazi Germany, while others give that "title" to Emmy Göring.
