I agree, that was an awesome post.
Not to thread jack, but if anyone interested in this thread hasn't seen Downfall yet I suggest you go see it. It is an amazing recreation of Hitler's last days (more or less). It is a bit tedious at times but the depictions of the major players involved is second to none.
Also, I recommend Hitler And His Generals. It is the surviving transcripts of all Hitler's Military Conferences from 42-45. Now, this isnt a book for the casual reader. It is almost 1200 pages of small font. It also helps to have an idea of what was going on at the time of the transcribed conferences. But it is a very, very interesting read at times. But very boring at other times.
