Fascinating if true.

They wanted to kill Hitler because he was losing the war and they wanted to win it.

Wow! Sounds like Axel von dem Bussche was a remarkable man and a patriot of the highest order whose destiny was cheated by an ill-timed allied bombing raid. Like Hitler, the guy who took office just days before Bussche’s natural death on January 26, 1993 defeated a man with a similar name for the presidency of the United States and like Hitler, proceeded to install a rogue regime with which we are still suffering.

Hitler would travel that far east for a “fashion show”? Not criticizing the plotters’ motives, but there would need to be more to it than the latest in winter wear.

I don’t give much weight to this authors opinions. He does not know his geography that’s for sure. I have been to the “Wolf’ Lair”, it’s in Poland not Kaliningrad.

Sounds like a harebrained plot. If someone wanted to kill Hitler in a suicidal manner, all that would be necessary would be to pull out a Luger and shoot him. The shooter might even get away with some luck.

[D.P.Roberts]

If we added up all the Germans who plotted to kill Hitler it would nearly equal the membership of the French Resistance.

The uniforms were among the casualties from two nights of bombing raids on Berlin, so the plot was abandoned.

IOW, the headline is a ridiculous lie.
