Besides the summary executions of 84 American soldiers at the farmer's field, the term "Malmedy Massacre" also includes other Waffen-SS massacres of civilians and POWs in Belgium villages and towns in the time after the first massacre of the U.S. troops.
These Waffen-SS war crimes were the subject of the Malmedy Massacre trial (May-July 1946), which were a part of the Dachau Trials (1945-1947).
