Is Mise,

Hitler and Goering were not brave and heroic.
The facts indicate otherwise.
Hitler's image as a brave soldier is a myth. Nazi
propaganda. Hitler exaggerated his early role in
battle and that he was instead known as a
"rear area pig."

He was significantly distanced from his regiment's
front line troops and was despised by them.

New sources and archives have been discovered
and Dr Thomas Weber has written a book on Hitler's
First War claims. This information was recently
published by the BBC:

As for Goering?

In my eyes the man was a coward. He took his own life rather
than face the consequences of his trial as a war criminal.

His may have displayed certain traits as a fighter pilot during
WWI but his legacy wipes that out. He left a legacy as one
of the primary architects of the muderous Third Reich Nazi
police state in Germany. He established the Gestapo Secret
political police and concentration camps for the "correction
treatment" of difficult opponents.

Heroic in his time? His legacy speaks for itself.

Is Mise,

I mistyped the link. Here it is again:

Foxy,
I’ll look forward to the book, perhaps Hitler faked it all including being wounded and hospitalised, must’ve fooled the doctors as well.
Goering was all that you say he was, but whatever he did later does not alter his bravery in WW1 and remember that theAllies found his combat claims to be largely true.
They could find no falsification.

Why on earth are you still having typos?
Highlife the URL, copy and paste.

Is Mise,

You don't have to wait - the book "Hitler's First War"
by Thomas Weber is available from any good bookshop
or library. Alternatively it can be ordered for you.
It demystifies the myths of Hitler's "heroism."
Hitler spent most of his
time in relative safety and comfort. Not in the trenches.
He was between 3 and five k's - behind the front
lines. He was not in any danger. Contrary to what he
said in Mein Kampf - and what Nazi propaganda has implied.

In any case - what you choose to believe is not of my concern.
I am merely stating the facts - as have been researched and
supplied by Dr Weber.

As for Goering?
In my eyes that man was no hero.

I imagine that to you Stalin was also a hero.
History tells us otherwise on all counts

Foxy
So if Goering was not brave to risk his life in a WW1 fighter then what of all the other pilots, on both sides, who fought in that war?

Is Mise,

Were any of them tried for war crimes during
the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg
and found guilty and sentenced to death?
