They should have mentioned Niemoeller's name more often. Every review I see refers to him as "one of the other pastors." He was an important figure, too. The quote he gives in the sermon, "First, they came for the Socialists..." is famous, and he headed the German Lutheran church after the war. They took him to Sachsenhausen after arresting him (as shown in the film), and he spent the war there and at Dachau, where he was rescued by the U.S. Army. If only they'd gotten to Flossenburg quickly enough to save Bonhoeffer!

Hope you come back home to the Catholic church. There is a place in the pews with your name on it!
