>>Himmler was scary crazy — I compare him to Beria and Timur-e-Lang in his blood thirst. He was a real monster.
Reinhard Heydrich could trump Himmler any day of the week as the archetype SS ubermensch. Europe is fortunate that he died from his wounds after a brave assassination operation.
Heydrich was also a brilliant, yet evil man, probably the most intelligent of the whole lot. Some speculate he would have been Hitler’s choice to succeed him.
I didn’t know — thank you for pointing it out
