What is the proof that the teeth are authentic?
How would they have been in Moscow since the end of World War II?
Because the Russians dug up his body and destroyed his remains.
He was originally buried informally after the Red Army found his partially burned corpse in the Reichs Chancellery garden.
The body of Hitler (and Girlfriend) was picked up within a day or two of their death by the Russians. They spent around six weeks in an autopsy episode (yeah, it was a bit excessive)....never leaving the Berlin area. Far as I know....no Germans, Americans, or Brits were involved in this original autopsy.
At some point about two months after recovering the body....someone from Moscow (it’s never clear who) ordered the folks holding the body to dump it. They drove out to a woods about an hour’s drive west of Berlin, and dug a grave for the two bodies. This was mid-summer 1945.
Come January of 1946...another order comes out of Moscow....to dig up the two bodies. The order is for the Russian Army to dig a new and protected grave about 150 km SW of Berlin, on a Russian Army post being established. How they found the unmarked grave is still questionable but they came up with two bodies, and drove them to the Army post.
For 24 years, Hitler stays here buried on the Soviet post. Then another order comes from Moscow. They are burn the bodies and dump them in the local river.
Far as people know....other than the teeth, there’s nothing left to sample of Hitler.
We don’t know for sure. The Soviets and the NKVD played a lot of games with pics of his corpse (totally intact when we know he was burned), claiming they never found him, etc. There is no way to know for sure they’re his teeth..
They found out that Hitler took cyanide AND shot himself?
I remember some of Hitler's henchmen killed themselves with cyanide capsules, rather than stand trial or get caught.
Why would Hitler do both?
I'd think that one or the other would be sufficient.
