TOP 10 RIGHT NOW
Adolf Hitler’s longtime bodyguard, the last living person to see the Nazi dictator’s final moments, has died at 96 years old. Rochus Misch originally entered the war to fight communism, not to protect Hitler, he said in a 2005 interview. But after being delegated to the Fuehrer’s safety, he became a loyal servant, staying on his post in the bunker even after Hitler’s and his wife, Eva Braun’s suicide. Misch remained proud of his work and claimed to have no knowledge of Hitler’s Final Solution that involved the mass murder of millions. Of Hitler, Misch said, “He was no brute. He was no monster,” and “he was a wonderful boss.”
