What is Hitler's real last name? Adolf Hitler: real name and surname.

Propaganda portrayed Hitler as a man who came into history from nowhere. There was no place in this myth for the family, no one was supposed to know about it. His half-brother Alois ran a pub in Berlin, his half-sister Angela looked after the house, his sister Paula was engaged to a murderer, one nephew fought on the side of Hitler, the other fought against. This family had many secrets. Modern research explains why the dictator concealed his origins. He was just afraid that it would make him vulnerable. But who were his relatives? What did Hitler think about his relatives, who did they consider him to be?

Mother of Adolf Hitler

Clara Pelzl was born into a peasant family in the Waldviertel (Austria) in 1860. The girl's father is Johann Baptist Pelzl, mother is Johann Hütler (Gütler), daughter of Johann Nepomuk Hüttler. Hitler - the father of Adolf Hitler - was an illegitimate child, whom his mother's husband recognized only in 1876, when he was already 39 years old. Johann Georg Hüttler, who always wanted to have a son, adopted a child, but as a child, Alois constantly lived with his uncle (according to other information - grandfather) - Johann Nepomuk. It was through his efforts that Alois was recognized as the son of Johann Georg. Upon adoption, the surname changed to Hitler. So, Clara Hitler and Alois Hitler, as a result of whose relationship the Nazi dictator was born, were related to each other.

Clara Pelzl's family

Clara had five brothers and the same number of sisters. Almost all of them died young. Only the sisters Johanna and Teresia lived relatively long lives (48 and 67 years respectively). Johanna was unmarried, had a hunchback, died from a coma due to diabetes. Adolf Hitler's aunt bequeathed most of her fortune. Theresia Hitler (Schmidt) married a wealthy peasant and continued her family. The rest of the children of Johann Baptist and Johanna Hütler died in childhood or at a very young age: Johann, Franz and Maria lived less than a year, Joseph at twenty-one, Anton at five, Karl Boris at a year and a few months, Maria at four years.

Acquaintance with Alois

After leaving school, Clara Hitler's biography took her to Alois' house, where she got a job as a housekeeper. The girl was then only thirteen years old. Alois, too, had to rely only on himself at thirteen. He ran away from home and took a job as an apprentice shoemaker. Five years later he got into the border guard, quickly moved up the ranks and soon became a senior customs inspector in the town of Braunau. Soon Alois Hitler inherited the company. He married a woman who was fourteen years older than him. His wife divorced him when Alois took a mistress, the cook Fanny (Francis) Matzelsberger. At the same time, Alois was attracted by sixteen-year-old Clara, but he married Fanny, who gave birth to two children - a daughter, Angela, and a son, Alois. Fanny died two years later.

Marriage of Alois and Clara

Alois Hitler entered into a relationship with Clara at the time when he was officially married to Fanny Matzelsberger. To marry her, a man had to get permission from the Vatican, because formally Clara was his blood relative. The local Catholic bishopric did not give permission for this marriage. By this time, a relative of Alois, who was twenty-three years older than her, was already pregnant. She attended church regularly, conscientiously performed her duties at home. Clara Hitler could not overcome the status of a servant in which she came to Alois's house. Even years later, she called her husband "Uncle Alois."

In the first years after the wedding, Clara gave birth to two boys and one girl, but the children died in infancy. Gustav Hitler died at two years and seven months, and his sister Ida twenty-five days after his brother at the age of one and a half years. The couple's third child, Otto Hitler, lived only three days. Two children died within one month from diphtheria. Otto died of hydrocephalus. Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889. Biographers write that Clara Hitler's love for her son was unconditional. He was born after the death of three children, so Clara most likely experienced fear and anxiety after giving birth, which could have dealt a severe blow to Adolf's psyche.

surviving children

In total, Clara Hitler had six children. When Adolf was almost five, Edmund was born. In early 1896, a daughter, Paula, was born into the Hitler family. Edmund died at the age of six from chicken pox. Only Adolf and Paula survived. They were the only siblings who survived to adulthood. (pictured below) worked in Vienna as a secretary, and after her dismissal began to receive financial support from her brother. At the request of Adolf, she took the fictitious surname Wolf and worked part-time. Wolf was Hitler's childhood nickname, which he used in the twenties for security purposes. Paula was the only relative of the leader of the Third Reich, to whom Hitler was attached all his life.

V last days During the Second World War, when defeat was imminent, by order of Martin Bormann, Paula was transported to Berchtesgaden. Then Paula was forty-nine years old. In May 1945, Hitler's sister was arrested and interrogated. Later, she returned to Vienna, lived on her own savings for a while, and then worked in an art store. From 1952 she cared for former SS members and survivors of her brother's inner circle in Berchtesgaden. Paula died in 1960 at the age of sixty-four. She was the last of the Fuhrer's closest relatives living then.

Other relatives

In the family of Clara Hitler and Alois, not only their own children were brought up, but also his son Alois Hitler Jr. and daughter Angela Hitler from Fanny Matzelsberger. All the children were raised by Clara. At fourteen, Alois Jr. ran away from home due to a conflict with his father. After that, the tyranny of his father went to Adolf. The future dictator considered running away from home at the age of eleven. Angela (pictured below with her husband), Adolf's older half-sister, lived with the family until 1903. In 1903, she became the wife of Leo Raubal, a tax inspector. From him she gave birth to a son Leo, daughters Geli and Elfrida.

Obviously, Angela had a good relationship with her half-brother. She moved to the capital of Austria and, after the First World War, began working as a manager. For ten long years she knew absolutely nothing about Adolf's life, but in 1919 he made contact with his half-sister. In 1928 (eighteen years after the death of her first husband) she moved to the Berghof, where she became Hitler's housekeeper. Some researchers believe that Adolf had a sexual relationship with his niece Geli, who committed suicide in 1931.

Angela herself did not approve of her stepbrother's relationship with Eva Braun. Their relationship finally deteriorated when, in 1935, Hitler gave Angela a day to pack her bags. He accused the woman of helping Goering acquire land across from his property in Berchtesgaden. Hitler finally broke off warm relations with Angela. He didn't even attend her wedding. In 1936, Angela Hitler married Martin Hammich, a German architect and director of a building school. During World War II, the Fuhrer contacted his sister again. She was an intermediary in his communication with other family members.

The further fate of Angela

After the bombing of Dresden, the head of Nazi Germany moved his half-sister to Berchtesgaden so that she would not be captured soviet soldiers. He gave her 100,000 Reichsmarks and in his will guaranteed Angela a monthly pension of 1,000 Reichsmarks. Angela highly appreciated her brother even after the end of the war. She stated that she knew nothing about the Holocaust (as did Hitler). Angela Hitler was sure that if Adolf knew what was happening in concentration camps he would have stopped it.

Death of Clara Hitler

Alois Hitler died in 1903. On the morning of January 3, he went into a tavern to drink a glass of wine out of habit, picked up a newspaper and suddenly felt ill. Soon he died either from a myocardial infarction or from a hemorrhage in the lungs (there are several versions). Two years later, Clara Hitler sold their house and moved to Linz. Paula was then five years old, Adolf fourteen. In 1907, Clara Hitler was diagnosed with breast cancer. Soon she was admitted to the Merciful Sisters Hospital in the town of Linz. At the beginning of the year, she underwent a difficult operation that lasted an hour. Eleven months later, the woman died. Clara Hitler's cause of death is cancer.

The secret of Hitler's nationality

Adherents of the myth about the Jewish origin of the leader Nazi Germany operate with a mass of facts, some of them can be classified as fiction. However, these rumors really have to be based on something. The behavior of the Fuhrer is also suspicious, who prevented the disclosure of his genealogy after coming to power and even destroyed the documents. Back in 1928, the Berlin police proved that Adolf Hitler's grandfather was Jewish. Researchers at Harvard came to the same conclusion in 1943.

What is the nationality of Clara Hitler? Analysts believe that Hitler had Jewish blood on the paternal side, but only syphilis could be transmitted through the mother's side, which caused the death of many babies, as well as Clara's brothers and sisters. Adolf's godfather and family doctor was a Jew. Even if you omit questions of nationality, the leader of Nazi Germany was born as a result of incest. There is information that his sister Ida had a mental illness, his aunt suffered from diabetes and was born hunchbacked, the son of another aunt was a hunchback with speech defects.

Alois or Alois Hitler(German Alois Hitler, June 7, 1837, the village of Strones - January 3, 1903, Linz) - Austrian customs officer, father of Adolf Hitler.

Biography

Origin

Alois Schicklgruber was born on June 7, 1837 in the village of Strones near Döllersheim to a 42-year-old unmarried peasant woman, Maria Anna Schicklgruber.

The child received the surname of his mother, since the field with the name of the father was not filled in the document on the baptism of the child and there was a note “illegitimate”, which he formally remained until his 39th birthday.

When Alois was already 5 years old, Maria Anna Schicklgruber married the apprentice miller Johann Georg Hiedler. When registering the marriage, Alois remained with his mother's surname and illegitimate. Officially, Giedler never acknowledged Alois as his son. Maria Anna died five years after her marriage from exhaustion due to chest dropsy. And Johann Georg Hiedler died ten years after his wife in 1857.

At present, Johann Nepomuk Güttler or his brother Giedler can be considered the father of Alois with the highest degree of probability; most biographers, including the well-known historian, specialist in Hitler's biography Werner Maser, give preference to Güttler.

There are other versions about Alois's father, for example, it has been suggested that Alois's biological father could be the 19-year-old son of a Jewish banker Leopold Frankenberger, for whom Maria allegedly worked as a servant for some time, which was subsequently carefully hidden by the Nazis, as evidence of a possible Jewish origin of the Fuhrer. Other historians, notably Ian Kershaw and John Toland, reject this version. And Joachim Fest directly says that this statement is very, very doubtful.

Johann Nepomuk Güttler was a wealthy man and lived as a rentier for the last 35 years of his life. He also owned the only hotel in Spitel.

At the same time, Johann Nepomuk Güttler was also the grandfather of Clara Pölzl, the mother of Adolf Hitler. That is, Alois Hitler in his third marriage married the daughter of his half-sister (Johanna Güttler).

Alois began to be called Hitler only on January 6, 1876, when he was already 39 years old and he first signed "Hitler". Instead of Güttler, the surname became Hitler due to a priest's mistake when writing in the Birth Registration Book. The legitimization of the fact of paternity happened so late, because during the life of his wife (who was 15 years older and was the head of the house), Johann Nepomuk Güttler could not start this procedure. And at the age of 40, Alois refused all contact with his maternal relatives, the Schicklgrubers, and finally became Hitler.

early years

Until the age of five, Alois lived in the village of Shtrones with his grandfather and mother. After his mother got married, Alois Schicklgruber was sent to the neighboring village of Spitel on a farm to her husband's brother Johann Nepomuk Güttler (actual father).

Johann Nepomuk Güttler surrounded Alois with warmth and love, since he did not have a legitimate successor to the family, but had only three daughters - Johanna, Walburga and Josef.

In Spitel he attended elementary school.

From 1851, he began to study shoemaking with a relative of Ledermüller, first in Spitel, and from 1853 in Vienna. In Vienna until 1855 he worked as an apprentice shoemaker.

In 1855, at the age of 18, he entered the service of the Kaiser's financial guards. Intensively engaged in self-education.

Career

In 1860 he was transferred to Wels near Linz. This translation is an important milestone in his career.

In 1861 he was promoted and in 1862 transferred to Saalfelden near Salzburg.

In 1864, another promotion and transfer to Linz. This promotion and transfer obliged the state to accept him for service in the customs office as an employee with all the benefits of a government official.

Alois Schicklgruber quickly rose through the ranks.

Since 1870 he has been working as an "assistant to control". X class of the table of ranks.

In 1876, approved in the service and officially approved, the change of the surname "Schiklgruber" to "Hitler". Thus, contrary to popular misconception, his son Adolf Hitler never bore the surname Schicklgruber.

Well, since they asked, I repost the story on my own with a confused surname and additions.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to find a sufficient number of photographs of A. Hitler's father, because (according to Joachim Fest, the creator of the most detailed biography of "Hitler") Adolf, becoming Reich Chancellor, purposefully concealed or destroyed all materials related to his family and the times of his youth: nothing should have cast a shadow on the Fuhrer, including the story of his very gray-footed origin. But, let's talk about dad and his last name.

Photo from 1870, here Alois (still Schicklgruber) is 33 years old (he was born on June 7, 1837):


So, strictly on genealogy. In the Austro-Hungarian borderlands, the surnames Hitler, Gidler or Güttler (presumably Czech - Gidlar, Gidlarchek) were very common and in one of the variants were traced back to the 30s of the 15th century (Jetzinger F. "Hitlers Jugend", S. 11)

In 1837, an unmarried servant Anna-Maria Schicklgruber (Schicklgruber) gave birth to an illegitimate child baptized under the name Alois. Five years later, Anna-Maria married the assistant miller of the Dellersheim community, Johann Georg Giedler. Further, it is even more interesting: the son Alois in the same year was given up for the upbringing of her husband's relative, the peasant Johann Nepomuk GüTTler (both Güttler and Gidler are the alleged fathers of Alois, it is not known exactly). What follows is a rather murky and uninteresting story with the Austro-Hungarian bureaucracy and registration in the register of civil status.

Photo 2. Alois Hitler in the uniform of a senior official of the customs department of Austria-Hungary. The rank is similar to the Russian collegiate assessor or army major (a very decent rank, we note):

So: in 1877, after the death of Anna-Maria Schicklgruber (married GiDler) and 19 (!) years after the death of her husband, Johann Nepomuk GüTTler came to the pastor of Dellersheim with a request to "adopt" customs official Alois Schicklgruber. And the civil status book (probably not without a bribe) was replaced by the birth "out of wedlock" with "married" and Alois Schicklgruber officially became Alois Hitler. The surname was written as Hitler(and not Huttler and not Hiedler), which was undoubtedly the pastor's mistake, which was recorded by the Austro-Hungarian officials. Thanks to the inattentive pastor and the bureaucrats of Austria-Hungary who did not pay attention to the typo (or took the surname by ear) this surname became infamous.

3. Alois Hitler retired:

12 years later (in the marriage of Alois Hitler to Clara Pelzl), Adolf Hitler was born, who never did not bear the surname Schicklgruber.

At the moment, in the Linz region (Austria), 563 people have the surname Güttler, 226 people have the surname Gidler, and 46 people have the surname Hitler. The surname "Gidlar" in the Czech Republic is quite common - not like Ivanov in Russia, of course, but still.

Mom and dad, Alois and Clara Hitler are buried under their first names, surnames, here is their grave in its modern form:

It so happened that representatives of world Jewry fought on the fronts of the Second World War both against the Nazis and for the Nazis!

About 500,000 Soviet Jews fought on the side of the USSR against the Nazis, and about 150,000 Jews fought on the side of Nazi Germany against the USSR.



It is also curious that during the Second World War, more than one person lived in the world.Hitler, but at least two!



One Hitler was in Nazi Germany, the other in the USSR!

The Nazi fascists had their own Hitler - Adolf Aloisovich, born in 1889, son of his father Alois Hitler (1837-1903) and his mother - Clara Hitler (1860-1907), who bore the surname before marriage Pölzl. I should note that in the pedigree of Adolf Aloisovich there was one small juicy detail. His father Alois Hitler was an illegitimate son in his parents' family. Until 1876 (until the age of 29) he bore the surname of his mother Maria Anna Schicklgruber(German: Schicklgruber). In 1842, Alois's mother, Maria Schicklgruber, married the miller Johann Georg Hiedler (Hiedler), who died in 1857. Alois Schicklgruber's mother died even earlier in 1847. In 1876, Alois Schicklgruber gathered three "witnesses" who, at his request, "confirmed" that Johann Georg Hiedler, who died 19 years ago, was Alois' real father. This perjury gave grounds for the latter to change his mother's surname - Schicklgruber - to his father's surname - Hiedler, which, when recorded in the book "registration of births", was changed to Jewish - Hitler. Historians believe that this change in the spelling of Hiedler's name to Hitler was not an accidental typo. Adolf Hitler's 29-year-old father, Alois, thus distanced himself from being related to his stepfather, Johann Georg Hiedler.

What for? Who was his real father?

In part, the answer to the last question is contained in documentary below. AND Historians claim that Alois Schicklgruber (Hitler) was the illegitimate son of one of the financial kings of the Rothschild family!
If so, then Adolf Hitler, it turns out, was also related to the Rothschilds. Obviously, the Rothschild banking family knew this very well, and therefore provided generous support in the 1930s. financial assistance Adolf Hitler in becoming his Fuhrer of the German nation.

The Soviet people, in the USSR, had their own Hitler- Semyon Konstantinovich, born in 1922, who served in the Red Army as a private.

Semyon Konstantinovich Hitler, during the defense of the 174.5 height of the Tiraspol fortification area 73 years ago, destroyed more than a hundred German soldiers with the fire of his machine gun. After that, wounded without ammunition, he left the encirclement. For this feat, Comrade Hitler was awarded the medal "For Courage". Subsequently, the Red Army soldier Hitler took part in the defense of Odessa. Together with her defenders, he crossed to the Crimea and died on July 3, 1942, defending Sevastopol.

JEWISH SOLDIERS HITLER

RIGG'S RADIES

He crossed Germany on a bicycle, sometimes doing 100 kilometers a day. For months, he lived on cheap jam sandwiches and peanut butter, slept in a sleeping bag near provincial train stations. Then there were raids in Sweden, Canada, Turkey and Israel. For six years, search trips lasted in the company with a video camera and a laptop computer.

In the summer of 2002, the world saw the fruits of this devotion: 30-year-old Brian Mark Rigg published his final work, Hitler's Jewish Soldiers: The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and People of Jewish Origin in the German Army.

Brian, an evangelical Christian (like President Bush), from a Texas Bible Belt working family, an Israel Defense Forces volunteer and a US Marine Corps officer, suddenly became interested in his past. Why did one of his ancestors serve in the Wehrmacht, while the other died in Auschwitz?

Behind Rigg was studying at Yale University, a grant from Cambridge, 400 interviews with Wehrmacht veterans, 500 hours of video evidence, 3,000 photographs and 30,000 pages of memoirs of Nazi soldiers and officers - those people whose Jewish roots allow them to repatriate to Israel even tomorrow. Rigg's calculations and conclusions sound quite sensational: up to 150,000 soldiers who had Jewish parents or grandparents fought in the German army on the fronts of World War II.

The term "mishlinge" in the Reich called people born from mixed marriages of Aryans with non-Aryans. The racial laws of 1935 distinguished between "Mishlinge" of the first degree (one of the parents is Jewish) and the second degree (grandparents are Jews). Despite the legal "corruption" of people with Jewish genes and despite the crackling propaganda, tens of thousands of "Mischlings" lived quietly under the Nazis. They were called up in the usual way to the Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine, becoming not only soldiers, but also part of the generals at the level of commanders of regiments, divisions and armies.

Hundreds of Mischlings were awarded Iron Crosses for bravery. Twenty soldiers and officers of Jewish origin were awarded the highest military award of the Third Reich - the Knight's Cross. Veterans of the Wehrmacht complained to Rigg that the authorities were reluctant to introduce them to the orders and pulled with promotion in rank, mindful of their Jewish ancestors.

FATE

The revealed life stories might seem fantastic, but they are real and documented. So, an 82-year-old resident of the north of Germany, a believing Jew, served in the war as a Wehrmacht captain, secretly observing Jewish rituals in the field.

For a long time, the Nazi press placed on their covers a photograph of a blue-eyed blond in a helmet. Under the picture was: "The perfect German soldier." This Aryan ideal was the Wehrmacht fighter Werner Goldberg (with a Jewish dad).

Wehrmacht Major Robert Borchardt received the Knight's Cross for the tank breakthrough of the Russian front in August 1941. Then Robert was sent to Rommel's African Corps. Near El Alamein, Borchardt was captured by the British. In 1944, the prisoner of war was allowed to come to England to be reunited with his Jewish father. In 1946, Robert returned to Germany, telling his Jewish dad: "Someone must rebuild our country." In 1983, shortly before his death, Borchardt told German schoolchildren: "Many Jews and half-Jews who fought for Germany in World War II believed that they should honestly defend their fatherland by serving in the army."

Colonel Walter Hollander, whose mother was Jewish, received Hitler's personal charter, in which the Fuhrer certified the Aryan identity of this Halachic Jew. The same certificates of "German blood" were signed by Hitler for dozens of high-ranking officers of Jewish origin. Hollander during the war years was awarded the Iron Crosses of both degrees and a rare distinction - the Golden German Cross. Hollander received the Knight's Cross in July 1943, when his anti-tank brigade destroyed 21 Soviet tanks in one battle on the Kursk Bulge. Walter was given leave; he went to the Reich via Warsaw. It was there that he was shocked by the sight of the destroyed Jewish ghetto. Hollander returned to the front spiritually broken; personnel officers entered in his personal file - "too independent and little controllable", hacking his promotion to the rank of general. In October 1944, Walter was taken prisoner and spent 12 years in Stalin's camps. He died in 1972 in Germany.

The story of the rescue of Lubavitcher Rebbe Yosef Yitzhak Schneersohn from Warsaw in the autumn of 1939 is full of secrets. Chabad in the United States turned to Secretary of State Cordell Hull for help. The State Department agreed with Admiral Canaris, the head of military intelligence (Abwehr), on Schneerson's free passage through the Reich to neutral Holland. Abwehr and the Rebbe found mutual language: German intelligence officers did everything to keep America from entering the war, and the Rebbe used a unique chance to survive. Only recently it became known that the operation to evacuate the Lubavitcher Rebbe from occupied Poland was led by an Abwehr Lieutenant Colonel Dr. Ernst Blochson of a Jew. Bloch defended the Rebbe from the attacks of the German soldiers accompanying him. This officer himself was "covered" by a reliable document: "I, Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer of the German nation, hereby confirm that Ernst Bloch is of special German blood." True, in February 1945, this paper did not prevent Bloch from being dismissed. It is interesting to note that his namesake, a Jew Dr. Edward Bloch, in 1940 personally received permission from the Fuhrer to travel to the United States: he was a doctor from Linz who treated Hitler's mother and Adolf himself in his childhood.

Who were the "Mischlings" of the Wehrmacht - victims of anti-Semitic persecution or accomplices of the executioners? Life often put them in absurd situations. One soldier with an Iron Cross on his chest came from the front to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp to ... visit his Jewish father there. The SS officer was shocked by this guest: "If it were not for the award on your uniform, you would have quickly ended up in the same place where your father is."

Another story was told by a 76-year-old resident of Germany, 100% Jewish: in 1940 he managed to escape from occupied France using forged documents. Under new German name he was drafted into the Waffen-SS - selected combat units. "If I served in the German army, and my mother died in Auschwitz, then who am I - a victim or one of the persecutors? The Germans, feeling guilty for what they have done, do not want to hear about us. The Jewish community also turns away from people like me, because our stories contradict everything that is used to be considered the Holocaust."

LIST of 77s

In January 1944, the personnel department of the Wehrmacht prepared a secret list of 77 high-ranking officers and generals "mixed with the Jewish race or married to Jewish women." All 77 had Hitler's personal certificates of "German blood". Among those listed—23 colonels, 5 major generals, 8 lieutenant generals and two full army generals. Brian Rigg announces today. To this list one can add another 60 names of senior officers and generals of the Wehrmacht, aviation and navy, including two field marshals.

In 1940, all officers who had two Jewish grandparents were ordered to leave military service. Those who were "stained" by Jewishness only on the part of one of their grandfathers could remain in the army in ordinary positions. Reality was different—these orders were not carried out. Therefore, they were repeated to no avail in 1942, 1943 and 1944. There were frequent cases when German soldiers, driven by the laws of "front-line fraternity", hid "their Jews" without betraying them to party and punitive bodies. Such scenes of the 1941 model could well have taken place: a German company hiding "their Jews" captures Red Army soldiers, who, in turn, hand over "their Jews" and commissars for reprisal.

Former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, a Luftwaffe officer and grandson of a Jew, testifies: “Only in my air unit there were 15-20 guys like me. I am convinced that Rigg’s deep immersion in the problems of German soldiers of Jewish origin will open up new perspectives in studying military history Germany of the 20th century.

Rigg single-handedly documented 1,200 examples of mischlinge service in the Wehrmacht - soldiers and officers with the closest Jewish ancestors. A thousand of these front-line soldiers had 2,300 Jewish relatives killed—nephews, aunts, uncles, grandfathers, grandmothers, mothers and fathers.

One of the most sinister figures of the Nazi regime could add to the "list of 77". Reinhard Heydrich, the Fuhrer's favorite and head of the RSHA, who controls the Gestapo, criminal police, intelligence, counterintelligence, fought rumors of Jewish origin all his (fortunately short) life. Reinhard was born in Leipzig (1904), the son of a conservatory director. Family history says that his grandmother married a Jew shortly after the birth of the father of the future chief of the RSHA.
As a child, older boys often beat Reinhard, calling him a Jew (by the way, Eichmann was also teased at school as a "little Jew"), at the age of 16 he joins the Freikorps chauvinist organization to dispel rumors about a Jewish grandfather. In the mid-1920s, Heydrich served as a cadet on the Berlin training ship, where the future Admiral Canaris was the captain. Reinhard meets his wife Erica, arranges Haydn and Mozart's home violin concertos with her. But in 1931, Heydrich was dismissed from the army in disgrace for violating the code of officer honor (seducing the infant daughter of the ship's commander).

Heydrich ascends the Nazi ladder. The youngest SS Obergruppenführer (rank, equal to a general army) intrigues against his former benefactor Canaris, trying to subdue the Abwehr. Canaris's answer is simple: at the end of 1941, the admiral hides photocopies of documents about Heydrich's Jewish origin in his safe.

It was the chief of the RSHA who held the Wannsee Conference in January 1942 to discuss the "final solution of the Jewish question." Heydrich's report clearly states that the grandchildren of a Jew are regarded as Germans and are not subject to repression. One day, returning home drunk to smithereens at night, Heydrich turns on the light in the room. Reinhard suddenly sees his own image in the mirror and shoots him twice with a pistol, shouting to himself, "Disgusting Jew!"

Air Field Marshal Erhard Milch can be considered a classic example of a "hidden Jew" in the elite of the Third Reich. His father was a Jewish pharmacist. Due to his Jewish origin, Erhard was not accepted into the Kaiser military schools, but the First World War opened him access to aviation, Milch got into the division of the famous Richthoffen, met the young ace Goering and distinguished himself at headquarters, although he himself did not fly on airplanes. In 1920, Junkers provided patronage to Milch, promoting the former front-line soldier in his concern. In 1929 Milch becomes CEO Lufthansa is the national carrier. The wind was already blowing towards the Nazis, and Erhard provided free Lufthansa planes for the NSDAP leaders.

This service is unforgettable. Having come to power, the Nazis declare that Milch's mother did not have sex with her Jewish husband, and Erhard's true father is Baron von Beer. Goering laughed for a long time about this: "Yes, we made Milch a bastard, but an aristocratic bastard!" Another aphorism of Goering about Milch: "In my headquarters, I myself will decide who is a Jew and who is not!" Field Marshal Milch actually headed the Luftwaffe on the eve and during the war, replacing Goering. It was Milch who supervised the creation of the new Me-262 jet and V-missiles. After the war, Milch served nine years in prison, and then worked as a consultant for the Fiat and Thyssen concerns until the age of 80.

GRANDSONS OF THE REICH

The work of Brian Rigg is exposed to overexposure and perversion. Scientific results very eager to take advantage of Catastrophe deniers—European and Islamic historians trying to dismiss the phenomenon of the Holocaust or downplay the scale of the genocide of the Jews.

By quoting Rigg, such scholars change the emphasis on minutiae. It is said, for example, about "Jewish soldiers" and even about "Hitler's Jewish army", while the author himself writes about soldiers of Jewish origin (children and grandchildren of Jews). The vast majority of Wehrmacht veterans reported in an interview that when they joined the army, they did not consider themselves Jews. These soldiers tried with their courage to refute the Nazi racial chatter. With triple zeal at the front, Hitler's soldiers proved that their Jewish ancestors did not prevent them from being good German patriots and staunch warriors.

Hasan Huseynzade, a Muslim historian from Minnesota, lists in his review: "Jewish soldiers served in the Wehrmacht, SS, Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine. Dr. Rigg's work should be read by anyone who studies or teaches World War II history." The mention of the SS is not accidental - now "ducks" will fly in the media about the service of Jews in the SS, although Rigg gave a single example of such a person (and even then with fake German documents). The readers will remain in the subconscious: "The Jews destroyed themselves, serving in the SS." This is how anti-Semitic myths are created.

Dr. Jonathan Steinberg, Rigga's Project Manager University of Cambridge, praises his student for his courage and overcoming the hardships of the study: "Bryan's findings make the reality of the Nazi state more complex."

The young American, in my opinion, not only broadens the picture of the Third Reich and the Holocaust, but also forces Israelis to take a fresh look at the usual definitions of Jewry. It was previously believed that in the Second World War, all Jews fought on the side anti-Hitler coalition. Jewish soldiers in the Finnish, Romanian and Hungarian armies were seen as exceptions to the rule.

Now Brian Rigg confronts us with new facts, leading Israel to an unheard of paradox. Let's think about it: 150 thousand soldiers and officers of the Nazi army could be repatriated according to the Israeli Law of Return. The current form of this law, spoiled by a late insert about the separate right of the grandson of a Jew to aliyah, allows thousands of Wehrmacht veterans to come to Israel!

Left-wing Israeli politicians are trying to defend the grandchildren amendment by saying that the grandchildren of a Jew were also persecuted by the Third Reich. Read Brian Rigg, gentlemen! The suffering of these grandchildren was often expressed in the delay of the next Iron Cross.

The fate of the children and grandchildren of German Jews once again shows us the tragedy of assimilation. The grandfather's apostasy from the religion of his ancestors hits like a boomerang all over the Jewish people and his German grandson, who is fighting for the ideals of Nazism in the ranks of the Wehrmacht. Unfortunately, the gallant flight from one's own "I" characterizes not only Germany of the last century, but also the Israel of today.

And now let's move to the present.

A "DPR" militiaman speaks to the camera: "We are confronted by "Jewish fascists". Now we are preparing to launch a volley at the fascist, ugly, nationalist scum ... Jewish! And their accomplices. Now there, on the other side, Jewish hundreds, Poles and others like them foreigners are fighting," reports " militia."

Alois Hitler

Alois Hitler is a far less sympathetic figure. He was an illegitimate child and therefore bore at first the name of his mother - Schicklgruber - and only much later changed it to the name Hitler. He did not receive any maintenance from his parents and did everything in his life himself. Hard work and self-education helped him go from a small employee of the Austro-Hungarian customs to " highest rank", which gave him the unconditional status of a respected bourgeois. Thanks to his modest life and ability to save, he saved so much money that he was able to buy an estate and still leave a decent fortune to his family, which, even after his death, provided his wife and children with a secure existence. Of course, he was selfish, he was not bothered by the feelings of his wife, however, in this respect he was probably a typical representative of his class.

Alois Hitler was a lover of life; he was especially fond of wine and women. He was not a womanizer, but the narrow framework of bourgeois morality was too tight for him. He liked to drink a glass of wine and did not deny himself this, but he was not at all a drunkard, as was reported in some publications. But the main thing, in which the life-affirming orientation of his nature was manifested, was his passion for beekeeping. Most he usually spent his leisure time near the beehives. This passion manifested itself early; creating his own apiary became a dream of his whole life. Finally, the dream came true: he bought a peasant farm (at first too big, then smaller), and by the end of his life he equipped his yard in such a way that he gave him great joy.

Alois Hitler is often depicted as a cruel tyrant - probably in order to make it easier to explain the character of his son. But he was not a tyrant, although he was an authoritarian person; he believed in such values ​​as duty and honor, and considered it his duty to determine the fate of his sons before they reached maturity. As far as is known, he never applied corporal punishment to Adolf; he reproached him, argued with him, tried to explain to him what was good and what was bad for him, but he was not that formidable father figure who inspires his son not only with respect, but with horror. As we will see, Alois early noticed the growing irresponsibility and flight from reality in his son, which led the father to rebuke Adolf more than once, warn of the consequences and try to reason with his son. Much indicates that Alois Hitler was quite tolerant of people, he was not rude, he never behaved defiantly, and in any case he was not a fanatic. His political views also correspond to this image. He showed great interest in politics, holding liberal, anti-clerical views. He died of a heart attack while reading a newspaper, but his last words expressed indignation against the "blacks", that is, the reactionary clerics.

How to explain that two normal, respectable and non-destructive people gave birth to such a "monster", which became Adolf Hitler?
