Maybe Goebbels, the guy from Berlin. He would have been Reichsfuerer if Hitler hadn't come along. Himmler was assasinated by partisans.
No, that was Heydrich. Killed by British trained Czechs. In reprisal, the Nazis killed all the men of Lidice.
Correct. He was the Propaganda Minister- Hitler's Michael Moore
He would have been Reichsfuerer if Hitler hadn't come along.
Heinrich Himmler *was* the Reichsfuhrer, and commanded the SS. Hitler was just 'Fuehrer'.
Himmler was assasinated by partisans.
You're thinking of Reinhard Heydrich, every bit the poisonous little cuss that Hitler and Himmler were. He was assassinated by Czech Partisans and British operatives, IIRC. The town of Lidice was obliterated along with its population in reprisal.
Himmler, after ineptly attempting to command the Waffen SS himself, was captured by the British Army. He had a Cyanide capsule secreted on his person, which he used. I seem to remember seeing a post-mortem photograph of him, he was incongrously dressed in sterile British battledress. Looked kind of odd.
