Image description

The surgeon and Major General Eugen Bircher was entrusted with the management of the first Swiss medical mission to Smolensk on the Eastern Front on October 15, 1941. The politically motivated mission under the auspices of the Red Cross only took care of German war victims and is therefore a controversial episode of the Swiss policy of neutrality.
