Did the Nazis get killed after World War 2?
After the war ended, many of the surviving leaders were put on trial, famously at Nuremberg. First the highest ranking political and military leaders of Nazi Germany, like Goering, Speer, Hess, Jodl and Doenitz were tried. Most of them were executed after being found guilty of various war crimes, although some simply received lengthy prison sentences. After this first major trial, there were a series of lesser trials against judges, doctors, businessmen, other lower ranking military leaders, and so forth. Most of these subsequent trials were to get the people who had carried out or benefited from the Holocaust. Additionally, in countries where Nazi Germany had occupied and done horrible things to the people, these people occasionally attacked Germans (and not just Nazi-linked ones) in retaliation for the horrors they had suffered. This was especially pronounced in Eastern Europe, in the countries liberated by the Soviet Union. Thousands of captured German soldiers (again, not just Nazis) died in Soviet labor camps after the war. There were also violent attacks in countries like Yugoslavia and Poland- I once met a woman of German descent who had to flee a town in northern Yugoslavia after the war due to the reprisals.

He was also the commander in chief of the German Air Force.Although he wasn't formally made so, he was usually considered the second-in-command for most of Hitler's reign over Germany. At the very end of the war, Goering was accused of treason, fired and was ordered to be arrested/executed by Hitler; however, Hitler committed suicide and World War II ended before the sentence could be carried out.
