  • Hermann Goering’s Secret State Police were ordered to arrest, and torture supposed enemies of the Reich to get confessions from them. All the powers of the German judiciary were taken into its hands and the courts were rendered superfluous. This is a compelling account of one of the true horror stories of the century.

    My mother, aged 24 in 1943, was arrested by the French Vichy Police in Toulon, France and promptly handed over to the Gestapo which had German officers and French auxiliaries. She spent six months in solitary confinement in the Gestapo prisons in Toulon and Marseilles prior to 2 years in Dachau concentration camp and one of its subcamps in western Austria. She told me that the solitary imprisonment and prisoner treatment was far worse in the two Gestapo prisons in France than in the German concentration camps.

    My Grandparents had a visit from the Gestapo at home in St Quentin in 1944. They were there to arrest their son (my uncle) not because he'd done anything wrong but because the local Kommandant had had his car vandalised and, as they had no idea who'd done it, they decided it was my uncle's turn to be imprisoned. My uncle was out having his haircut and they told the Gestapo this. Fine they said, and told them he'd have to hand himself in or they'd arrest my Grandfather - just as good in their view.
    A row ensued when my uncle got back. He didn't fancy a spell in a Gestapo cell. Eventually, my Grandfather opted to hand himself in instead. He returned to his frantic family a week later and told them he'd had a great time playing cards with other locals who'd been arrested. By that time, the Gestapo were well aware they were losing the war and harming or killing locals was pointless.
    An unexpected tale about the war but absolutely accurate according to my mum - the youngest of the family who witnessed it all.

    My grandfather in law, a German citizen and ww1 veteran, was arrested by the gestapo for speaking ill of AH in a bar near dusseldorf. He knew everyone in the village pub. There were no gestapo there. Theyd only have 10 - 15 officers for most cities anyway. It was citizens reporting each other for small benefits that kept the gestapo prisons full.
    He was released a week later, bruised and shaken. He spent the last few years of the war keeping himself to himself and was very grateful come liberation and never trusted his other local citizens again.

    My German grandparents living in Hamburg at the time and openly being against Hitler, were visited by the Gestapo quite often, lost everything they had and my grandfather was forced to join the army and sent off to Stalingrad on a bicycle. He barely survived, had parts of his feet removed because of frostbite and never spoke about Nazi Germany again in his life. He only told me once that as Germans we had to undergo the same contempt all Germans had to go through for the rest of his and our lives.

      @danjarvis6980 Před 6 měsíci +3

      @Eitner100: The collective grouping of ALL Germans of the period, WWII, as evil is ill advised. Neither is it biblical. " The soul that sinneth it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. " Ezekiel 18:20 KJV. This scripture teaches individual responsibility for ones action in life. It is in vogue to condemn and judge being considered " politically correct " . Few if any rational persons would condone acts done under the banner of Nazism. But there has to have been German soldiers who fought and maintained their honor, with their moral compass intact, even in the midst of histories bloodiest time. Yet very seldom will you read or see anything other than the worn out usual condemnation of ALL things and peoples German. Any writer or producer of documentaries presenting an individual or group of Germans in a positive light in the time period under discussion in all probability will find serious opposition in having their work accepted by the media or mainstream publishers.

      For you to poison the folk's morale by insinuating a fecal quality to the situation at hand makes it clear you are listening to enemy propaganda are are thus in violation of law and order AND possibly a traitor to the people and our leader, and by natural extension, the nation as a whole.

The sociopaths and individuals who are really unable to experience empathy or related emotions. Look at the Wagner mercenaries in Russia, similar practices in modern times. It has nothing to do with greed or status or personal improvement. The simple fact that we have human beings who can harm another human being without feeling any remorse to their actions.

    These are either from newsreels that I have never seen or diligent research has been done to find this film. Using Wagner as part of the soundtrack is brilliant.

      But he was the leader of the party that won the greatest number of seats in the General Election. The President had no choice in the matter, he had to appoint Hitler Chancellor (known as Prime Minister in some other countries). Thats how it works in most countries where there is a non-executive president or a constitutional monarch, the Head of State appoints the Head of Government based on the preference of the electorate. So Hitler was in effect voted into office.

    From this documentary we learned more about the war than we did about the Gestapo. Vicious though the Gestapo was, it did not run the extermination camps so the footage of such camps, their victims and their staff (at the end of the programme) is rather irrelavant. There is surely enough about the Gestapo that would fill a whole pgramme without all the extraneous bit thrown in. It even gave the Gestapo credit for running the Englandspiel in the Netherlands when that was run by the Abwehr.

    Sometimes the video mixs up Gestapo and SD. Salon Kitty was SD action (by Walter Schellenberg) and not Gestapo action (Schellenberg was in it!). Gestapo was secret Police the SD was secret inteligence service. They helped each other, but two distinct services. The leader of the SD-Ausland (külföldi kémszolgálat) Schellenberg (from 1942) was not punished after war. Very few Nazi leader got this position!

Thus he decided to stir it up a little...Learing about Churchills'' plans Tsjek resistance warned him that any hit on Heydrich would have the most terrible consequences and advised against the coup. Churchill took notice but still went ahead although by introducing 2 "foreign" agents to do the job. The reprisals were in line with the expected, turning the Tsjek people more against the occupiers, the ultimate goal of the assassination.

The re-rise of nationalism, the hatred of differing peoples, the mini wars, the saber rattling, simply put the general unease felt among citizenry of the nations in question.

    I have an original SD black M32 tunic in my collection that belonged to the guy who brought it home from ww2... It has SA collar tabs (post 1935 numeric). Can't bring myself to part with it yet. Maybe someday.

      The secrets were where you went, and what happened to you after they took you away.

      Their tactics! You never knew if you had a Gestapo member next to you in the workplace. Not all of them wore uniforms...

    The opening is spot on and scares me. Thank goodness Hitler did not win. But Lord help us that his current fanatics and followers do not carry out his hatred and ruin democracy. We should be caring for one another, not destroying one another.

      Define his current fanatics. Remember hitler used the media too. A reason i don’t trust media on either side

    The sheer mediocrity of the culprits of bestial crimes against their fellow human beings is testament to the
    fact that such mentalities can be led willingly by those exercising influence and power to commeit their
    horrendous acts. The world continues to see this awful reality, like some eternal curse placed upon the
    human race.
