As we commemorate the outbreak of World War II today, it is with fascination that I read this report on the BBC News site, in which a personal bodyguard of Hitler's, (now in his 90s), describes those last moments in the bunker. He also gives a slightly amusing account of his first encounter with Hitler.

An interesting read. Thanks.
A few nights ago the Military Channel had a show about Hitler that included his end in the bunker. Interviews with the surviving men and women were part of the story, very fascinating stuff! It was produced by the BBC.
Thanks that was interesting.
Thanks.

Really great article...thanks for the post!
Nice Article.
Such a colossal waste of life and property that war. Modern, educated Europe ripping itself to shreds, Europe's civil war. And not that long ago really. Hard to imagine there are still plenty of people who vividly remember, fought in, or suffered under the conditions of that war. Not to mention the Asian theatre. Never again. Right?
