Obit for One of the Last of Hitler's Bunker Survivors

[stonemint]

I don't know if anyone caught this today, but Baron Bernd Freytag von Loringhoven passed away at the age of 93 on Monday, April 2nd.
He was (I believe) on General Kreb's staff as a Major, and successfully escaped the bunker and made it to the Anglo-American lines.
He published his memoirs in Germany recently, and they will be soon coming out in english under the title "In the Bunker with Hitler."
Its on Amazon right now with no release date--should be a fascinating read.

The only other Bunker survivor (correct me if I am wrong) is Rochus Misch--I don't believe his memoirs were ever written, but he has given many interviews.

Rochus Misch was radioman in Hitler's bunker.

The book is definitely available I got my copy in a London bookshop some 5 or 6 weeks ago. Good read too.

Best wishes,

Hi,
I´m new here...

I´ve spoked with Misch last Month and I want to visit him in Berlin but he´s a very busy man. Perhaps this or the next Month I will go to Berlin and make a Interview with him (with a Camera). I have a Homepage and then I will upload the Interview and some Pictures and Videos from other historical Places in Berlin.
