Hitler's Henchmen

by Patrick Morgan

Behind Adolf Hitler stood a hand-picked group of evil men who were sworn to aid the Führer in his quest for world domination and the elimination of the Jewish people. From the strutting propaganda genius, Joseph Goebbels, to history’s greatest mass murderer, Heinrich Himmler, each was sworn to uphold the monstrous policies of a Nazi machine that wrought terror wherever its malign influence spread. Hermann Goering’s Luftwaffe and Karl Doenitz’s navy dealt death on land and sea. Albert Speer plotted the glories of the future Germany while Baldur von Schirach manipulated the youth of the Reich. Adolf Eichmann masterminded the slaughter of millions. Josef Mengele tortured and murdered in the name of science. Roland Freisler shouted down political enemies while condemning them to the guillotine. Above them all, smirking as they danced to his tune, puppet master Martin Bormann schemed and twisted. Each one of Hitler’s henchmen was ruthlessly dedicated to the Nazi ideal. Together, they formed a real-life chamber of horrors.
