Upon release from prison, Peiper worked for the Porsche and Volkswagen automobile companies and later moved to France, where he worked as a freelance translator. Throughout his post-war life, Peiper was very active in the social network of ex-SS men centred upon the right-wing organisation HIAG (Mutual Aid Association of Former Members of the Waffen-SS).

In 1976, Peiper died from asphyxiation after communist arsonists discovered his identity and set his house on fire.

    Heinrich Schtürmller was sentenced to 15 years hard labour for ordering the execution of 5,000 civilians in Nuremfuld, Öst-Bavaria

    Heinrich was later released on good behaviour 5 weeks later on special request of the West German population who were suspiciously eager to fight the Soviets for some reason.

    Following his release, he became special envoy at the West German institute for Jewish Reconciliation, where he lobbied the authorities to encourage emigration of ethnic Jews to Israel.
