In that day, sure. But I thought we were talking about the present time.
I read a large biography of Hitler by Joachim C. Fest, and there was no mention of any trench incident that I recall.

“...what if Hitler hadn’t been sleeping when the D-Day attack occurred. (If that story is correct).”
Hitler was known to sleep in but the problem for the Germans was that Hitler believed the Normandy landings were a diversion and that Gen Patton would be leading the REAL landings at the Pas de Calais.
Even though Rommel had determined much earlier that Normandy would be the site for any invasion of France, Hitler never believed it and kept the armor further north where they could quickly get to Calais. By the time Hitler turned the armor loose for Normandy the panzer units had to fight their way to Normandy, not arriving in time to do much good.
“Hitler, there was a painter. He could paint an entire apartment in one afternoon....Two coats!”
The Producers…there was a movie.
I almost lost a kidney from laughter over Dick Shawn’s “Love Power” audition.
Thanks.
I think it was his World War I experiences that shaped Hitler, particularly his hatred for the political class.
I never knew the Third Reich meant Germany! It’s just drenched with historical goodies like that!
Note. This is just me trying to do what would be a Hitler rap. I’m Jewish, live in Israel, and as you will note from my lousy spelling in German, it’s just transliterated Yiddish with all the Semitic words left out.
Springtime for Hitler and Germany
Deutschland is happy and gay!
We’re marching to a faster pace
Look out, here comes the master race!
Don’t be stupid,
Be a smarty,
Come and join the Nazi party!

From the article, it had nothing to do with the British Soldier knowing who Hitler was. He was just a German soldier to him.
It is foggy, but the article I linked has a lot of info.
Well, of course tghere were Zionist Pioneers in Pa;lestine long before WW2, but the Holocaust was certainly a catalyst for the Foundation of the Modern Jewish State.
Documentary together with William Shirer’s “The Rise and Fall of the 3rd Reich” (whole chapters on hitler’s life as a boy, his Schickelgruber name, jewish heritage,his homelife his abusive father, his WWI military service as a courier and winning the Iron Cross from his jewish commanding officer). All of the book is well documented footnoted and cross referenced with actual correspondence between hitler and various thugs who worked with him, and the reactions of the Prussian officer class who were very sorry they ever supported him. His sex life is in their as well.
Another resource is the US intel full profile of hitler from WWII—compiled by the OSS, and a top psychiatrist. Predicted his suicide, claiming abandoned by the German People. Which is what he did- he said the surviving Germans were worthless- the ones dying for him... his legacy. A true lunatic and major incompetent misdirecting Germany’s resources to the detriment and loss of a war they could have won— had it not been for the Holocaust and slave labor for Krupp, Thyssen and IG Farben to name 3 major corporations.
Not secretive enough, when he came to personally administer the gas through a ground level ventilator shaft hidden by bushes— he found it had a 12 ft. chimney added- so he could not avoid the SS guards seeing him— end of effort. Speer did one thing— he disobeyed hitlers destroy all industries, water supplies, electrical grid, railroads—etc. And somehow hitler didn't kill him— being a “fellow artist” and all. What a loon adolf was- crafty, devious, murderous- a politician in every way.
Felton never posted part 3— the real results of where hitler “went”... buried in a car part in E. Berlin, then disinterred and ground up. Fake skull fragments (from a female), and other bone parts the Soviets maintained as a ruse. Stalin played every Allied government with this one.
Definitely so— because there would have been no out of work German veterans of WWI, and inflation to the point of a billion DeutschMarks for a loaf of bread. Wheelbarrels full of paper money worthless.
There would not have been the German Army derived Free Corps which became the Sturmabteilung (S.A.) Brownshirts which were put on a payroll from the German govt, and who numbered 2 million plus— who then stole away Communists (who outnumbered the NSDAP Nazis, and who had nearly identical political platforms. Labor and bread etc.) William Shirer examines Joseph Goebbels who was an ardent Bolshevik and advocated the Nazis and Communists (both Socialist Leftist groups) join together. An amazing chapter in his masterpiece book. Europe was falling apart from before WWI and the war didn’t help or decide much except getting rid of nearly all the monarchies- The Fall of the Eagles.
The Rise and Fall of the 3rd Reich— bio on hitler points out he failed to get into the Arts Academy because he had no artistic talent— as you said, smarter than his teachers, and later on he was “smarter” the the professional Prussian generals who were winning, and told them he didn’t go to any military academy but he’d.. “read Clausewitz” . What a horrible con artist, and lunatic.
Impossible for the UK soldier to verify the target. Seems it was some form of propaganda for both UK and for hitler. At one point when raving about— hitler raved how it was important to get Britain together with them... to fight the Russian Bolsheviks.
But for many years Goebbels vacillated from his pledge to Bolshevism to National Socialism (both Leftist) until he heard the “right words” from hitler. What a screwed up post WWI Germany was, and boy did France pay for what Wilson allowed at Versailles. To think that Vichy developed, and Marshal Petain was to be executed for collaboration only to be saved by DeGaulle (for the olde Guard to survive the many Commies in France who were most of the Resistance).
Mengele’s corpse was verified by dental records- so he did eventually die there. The family agricultural manufacturing business continued under his son. Mengele was no medical scientist— he was a psychopath, as most of the nazi “medical” researchers were- especially the story of the skeleton collecting registry in Strasbourg, France. Allied soldiers found alcohol pickling vats filled with bodies sliced longitudinally- those that could not be disposed of in time by the “researchers”.
