the disciples of the Wolf: Martin Bormann

the disciples of the Wolf:  Martin Bormann by ric Gustafson


Martin Bormann was born on June 17 1900 in Wegeleben Prussia. His wife's name was Gerda and they had ten children.
Bormann was despised by other Nazi leaders and was nicknamed the ' brown eminence'. He had the most access to Hitler and allowed few to be near him. Bormann was the personal secretary to Rudolf Hess but later became Hitler's. He helped build the Berghof and purchased Hitler's birthplace at Braunau and gave it to him as a present.
Bormann was short squat with a moon face. He was course and banal. He did not smoke, drink and was a vegetarian. As Hitler's office manager, he demanded blind obedience and was a yes man.
What happened to Bormann at the end of the war is a mystery. Some people thought that he had escaped to South America. In 1972 near the Lehrter railway station, remains were found. In 1998, DNA confirmed that those remains were those of Hitler's secretary.
