Worst “find” in history if they actually come up with a 125 y.o. Hitler. Next would be confirmed bones somewhere that could be turned into some kind of shrine by neo-Nazis.

I thought the Russians finally broke down and revealed what they found and tested after some false starts, including a jaw with teeth id’d by dental records.

Ultimately, who cares except the producers of this ‘Reality” show on cable?

The remains of Hitler and Braun were mingled and partly incinerated (but not cremated, gasoline doesn’t burn hot/long enough to turn bone to ash), buried, then disinterred by the Red Army and were examined, the ID verified. The idea was as you said to avoid a marked grave that could become a shrine, but they also had no cremation capacity available, so the remains were reburied in secret. Some months later the remains were exhumed again for further examination. Apparently at that time the cranial fragment (the one that appears to have an bullet hole) and other fragments wound up in Moscow.
