Eavesdropping on Hitler’s Reich
fragments which fly 6, 7, 8, or even 10 km spread it!
ENGLISCHER OFFIZIER: But experts are of the opinion that one
needs many more gas bombs than Spreng- oder Brandbomben to
destroy a city.
GÖRING: Let me tell you this as a specialist: the most dangerous are

one-sided, so pronounced. We told ourselves that everything would be
spoiled by bringing up the topic of chemical warfare.

Einige Wochen nach dem Fall dieser Festung, Ende der dritten
Februarwoche 1945, schilderte Ramcke wie er im Frühjahr 1943
auf dem Berghof zum Führer kam, um aus seinen Händen das
Ritterkreuz zu erhalten, begleitet von Görings Verbindungsoffizier
General Karl Bodenschatz und der Luftwaffenadjutant Hitlers,
Oberst Nicolaus von Below und noch einem Hauptmann von einer
Stuka-Gruppe:
