About Anton Geiser

  • Anton Geiser (surname also spelled Geisser; October 17, 1924 – December 26, 2012) was a Yugoslav-born member of the SS-Totenkopfverbände during World War II, who served as a guard at both the Sachsenhausen and Buchenwald concentration camps.
  • In 1956 he moved to the United States, settling in Sharon, Pennsylvania, where he had family.
  • In 1962 he became a naturalized American citizen.
  • In 2006 he was stripped of his citizenship on the grounds that it would not have been granted had the full details of his role in the German military been known; in 2010 a US judge ordered him deported to Austria, the country from which he had immigrated.
  • He died in Pittsburgh on December 21, 2012 while still battling his deportation.
