John Heinrich Detlef Rabe (23 November 1882 – 5 January 1950) was a German businessman and Nazi Party member best known for his efforts to stop war crimes during the Japanese Nanjing Massacre (also romanized as Nanking) and his work to protect and help Chinese civilians during the massacre that ensued.
During the Second Sino-Japanese War, German businessman John Rabe (Ulrich Tukur) leads a committee of foreigners who help save Chinese citizens from Japanese war crimes.
