text: US reveals Nazi war criminal's location was known two years before his capture
  
  June 7, 2006 
  
  The 27,000-pages of documents released on Tuesday reveal that while the United States and West Germany knew the location of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann two years before his capture, the fact was kept secret. The documents were declassified as part of the Nazi War Criminals Disclosure Act of 1998. 
  West German Intelligence informed the US in March 1958 of the whereabouts of the senior Gestapo officer, who was living under the alias "Clemens" in Argentina where he had arrived seven years earlier. 
  It was not US policy at the time to go after Nazi criminals since they were still recruited for Cold War operations.
