The wreck of Hess's Messerschmitt bf 110
In May of 1941 Rudolph Hess single-handedly parachuted into Scotland to open peace negotiations with England. Because he felt left out.
No really. Someone else had supplanted his place as Hitler's supposed favorite as the war heated up, and he decided the way to fix this was to go to England and convince someone to sign a peace treaty that gave Germany all the things they wanted.
I don't even know where to start with that.
Also, the more of this stuff I watch the more convinced I am Goebbles was a little...enamored of his fuhrer. I was watching The Rise of the Nazi Party and they helpfully read some of his diary entries from the first time he met Hitler and I'm not sure 'crush' covers it. Mostly they're a study in extremely miserable people doing their best to blame it on someone else and make them miserable too.
So yes. The Crazy is strong.
And hey, on Wednesday we're gonna talk about my lack of creative spoons, so you've got that coming down the pipes.
