Shortly after the First World War was declared, Adolf Hitler petitioned to King Ludwig the 3rd of Bavaria to enlist in the "Kings own regiment" which was an elite unit of the Bavarian Army, he was accepted but put in the 16th Bavarian reserve infantry. He went through basic training, and went he got to the trenches he spoke about the evil of tobacco and alcohol to his comrades, and was popular for drawing sketches in the trenches. During WW1 Hitler allways volunteered for hazardous duty, his first combat was October 29th 1914, Hitlers unit lost 3000 of its 3600 men after making 5 assaults on the enemy position, Hitlers sleeve blew off from his tunic from a close call from a shell. He was given the Iron Cross second class and was promoted to corporal because of bravery under fire.
Later, he became a runner, which meant he ran from the rear to the front of the trench to send messages, he enjoyed that job.
During the end of the Battle of the Somme, Hitler was hit in the leg by a shell fragment he was sent to Berlin to recover, and stayed there for 5 months. Hitler could of stayed back in German from the severeness of the wound, but demanded to go back to the front. During the Ludendorff offensive, he was only armed with a pistol, and captured 5 French soldiers, and he was awarded the Iron Cross first class. Captian Fritz Liedmann, Hitlers commander didn't promote him because and I quote "he lacked the capacity for leadership"
As the war turned against Germany, Hitler believed defeatism was loosing morale, and beat a man that said the war was near over.
In October 1918 Hitler was gassed by British artillery, in Ypres his face swelled and his voice was hoarse.
He had a "piercing pain" in his eye sockets.
Whilst in the hospital, 2 days before the armistice a local pastor said Germany was now a republic, and the war was lost.
Shortly after the First World War was declared...
And so the Treaty of Versailles was signed. The injustice of Versailles brung hatred to most Germans for the next 20 years, unable to except the German Army has lost war, Hitler believed the army was stabbed in the back by Communists and parliamentary politicians. And that it was all part of a Jewish conspiracys. He then discovered public speaking. He joined a small group of fanatical nationalists in Munich, this would become the NSDAP, the National Socialist Deutsche Arbeit Partei or National Socialist German Workers Party. Or the Nazis, and in 1929, Hitler became their leader, using the swasdika, a symbol from a church Hitler used to sing hymns in in Vienna.
It probably true that a jew conspiracy caused Germany to lose.
After World War One, Germany was in serious danger of Communist take over, with more then 6 million German Communist Party members in the country.
Adolf Hitler was only the 55th member of the NSDAP, and allthough membership rapidly grew under his leadership, the early meetings mostly met with violence.
Vastly outnumbered, people would infiltrate these meetings, and massive brawls would break out.
In 1923 Hitler felt strong enough to seize power in Munich. A march took place. Everything went well until armed police blocked their only exist in a narrow street, and shot them.
The marching stopped, and a message was spread, that Hitler was dead. But he wasn't, he actually survived the bullets, and was arrested by German police, I'm landsburg prison. At first he was so depressed, he refused to eat. But after hearing that the failed uprising made him a local hero, he was sent to court and he said "If I am guilty of anything, then I am guilty for defending the rights of the German people"
He was sentenced to 2 months.
Hitler then started to write the bible of National Socialism, the book focused on the Jews, Race Purity, Living Space and the Evils of Communism.
It even talked about over topics, such as Boxing to Sexual Diseases.
After prison, the Führer has a new political strategy, not another coop, but to win the polls.
What was to win his many followers was the promise of a great National Revival. Hitler election opportunity came with the onset of the depression.
The Democratic Parties offered no solution.
The only hope was Adolf Hitler.
Hitler is the greatest man since Christ.
His speeches rallied to people, grown battle hardened men, cried tears of joy. He was considered to most powerful speaking man in human history.
Nobody never had this power of speech.
Hitler comes to power, not as he had hoped for out right victory at the polls, but as head of a coalition Goverment, he hated his coalition partner, he quickly makes Germany a dictatorship.
And becomes Führer.
Shortly after, the Reichstag is set on Führer by communists, just as Hitler had expected, that the communists wanted to overthrow the Goverment.
In the 1920's Berlin was known as the centre of sexual perversion, drugs and depravity. Once in power Hitler ordered the destruction of these things obscene books, pornography and communist literature was all burned by the Brownshirts.
This clampdown would force Jews, Liberals and Gays to leave to places like the US.
When Hitler assumed power in 1933, there were 7 million unemployed Germans, the highest in Europe at the time.
In only his first year at office, more then 3 million were put back to work.
Hitlers brilliant ideas included building motorways, with housing for workers the workers would spend their new wages, contributing to a growing economy.
Priory was given to the health of the nation, especially the youth free health care and the first anti smoking laws were put into use.
Hitler unironically did nothing wrong
Environment and wildlife was protected thanks to a Goverment policy.
Crime was practically eliminated, the streets were safe to walk again.
Hitler was the first person to issue a 40 hour work week with extra pay for overtime factory's are now required to have restrooms and a cafeteria.
The NSDAP leadership looked apon the changing of interest on loans as imorale and by forcing banks to abolish to practice of usury, millions were free from debt.
It was a spectacular fanatical recovery.
And yet, most western country's still suffered from the depression.
>He was sentenced to 2 months.
Nope. 5 years. But he only spent 9 months in prison.
>he lacked the capacity for leadership
Aka I didn't like the man
Army still pulls this shit to this very fucking day
All that work and he got SMASHED.
Pretty pathetic desu.
In the Nuremberg Stadium they came in the 10s of 1000s, full of youthful idealism to worship the Führer. Hitler focused on youth, he once said "You, my boys, the young of Germany live in a fortunate time because you are the standard bearers of the movement, you will inherit what we have so far created"
The mid 1930's was a great time for Germany.
Germany was at peace, at to National Socialist's, it was heaven.
But it wasn't just Germans who admired Hitler, many foreigners visited Hitler on his mountain retreat in Austria, such as former British prime minister David Loyd George.
A witness quotes: "Hitler ran down the flight of stairs to welcome L.G as he got out of his car, shook hands with him most warmly and conducted us inside. This massive room, the only light in which, came out of this massive window.
Loyd George said "you have done great things for Germany, you have restored her honour!"
Unlike the Soviets with their hammer and sickle the Nazis had no emblem or symbol.
Hitler not only wanted a symbol of the NSDAP but one powerful enough to strike fear into the communists.
The once failed artist went on to design the most famous political flag in history...
After 1945 the "Nazi" flag would be banned for being a symbol of hate.
It would also be hijacked by thugs and violent motorcycle gangs, using it for a different purposes then it's original Anti-Communist design.
The blood flag is called that way because one perticuler NSDAP flag was drenched in blood during a riot.
It became a sacred object of National Socialism.
On 12 March 1938, Germany marched into Austria, instead of seeing bullets and rifles, but with roses and carnations.
Most of the Austrian People wanted to join in in the economic success of National Socialism, and welcomed their German neighbors.
Ein Volk, Ein Reich Ein Führer! (One people, one Reich, one leader!)
Hitler has a campaign tour in Austria himself.
As German troops march into Austria, Austrian Troops enter Berlin Munich and Dresden, a message that Germany and Austria are together in a peaceful unification.
99.7 % of all Austrians voted to unite with Nazi Germany.
Life at Hitlers retreat was both reassuring and agreeable, and there was a entertaining side to the regularly hard-working Führer whilst off duty.
"I was overwhelmed to meet to Führer personally, he was a man who liked a joke, he could laugh a lot, he didn't like dirty joke or political jokes but all the other jokes he enjoyed terribly"
"When Hitler was talking for hours and I was standing, waiting for some paper work or something. And the certain opened and Eva Brown appeared and said "Adolf, you should have lunch now" and she didn't bother him with political questions, and she gave her a little bit of tea and cake, and sex"
>a little bit of tea and cake, and sex
Bullshit,
Hitler would never let Braun touch him.
In 1919 the treaty of Versailles created a new country, Czechoslovakia.
It had a population of 3.1million Germans
Go look it up.
A German witness said it himself.
It's more of a theory.
But it's a real quote.
Not by you cuck
With violence against ethnic Germans on the rise, Sudeten Germans are forced to call for the unification of Germany.
Czech President Edvard Benes will instead order martial law imposed on the Sudeten provinces, forcing a furious Adolf Hitler to demand their return.
"I have put forward an offer to Herr Benes...
... an offer that is nothing more then the realisation of his promises. The dicision is simple, be it war or peace? He can either except my offer and give the Germans their freedom, or we Germans can get it ourselves!"
-Adolf Hitler
A wave of relief and gratitude for the Führer swept Germany, his iron nerve had freed the Germans from Czechoslovakia, and yet averted war.
Post more, it's always interesting seeing a thread telling of Adolf's life.
In 1939, Hitler wanted the city of Danzig, as it would connect East Prussia with the Rest of Germany, but Poland refused to negotiate.
After threats of forced action, Poland starting KILLING GERMAN MINORITYS.
So many in fact, that 800,000 Germans were sent to refugee camps in Danzig and the German Reich.
Germany had no choice but to declare war.
I try to tell normies about this, but they always resort to muh juice as a defense.
Keep going OP, my popcorn is getting ready
Buddy I just wish you could spell better
>With violence against ethnic Germans on the rise
Germans and Czech lived side by side for hundreds of years you fucking tool, this was just a landgrab with HItler financing separatists for years without results as the divide in Czechoslovakia was nowhere near to what u like to believe. Even western history lies on this subject in order to make Munich agreement explainable
>He can either except my offer and give the Germans their freedom
Germans were free to live or leave Czechoslovakia but since the standard of living there was higher than in Germany they didnt want to leave. Tell me when pakistan asks for London because 30% here are Arabs will UK oblige?
Is there anything sadder than a Brit worshipping hitler? Talk about cuck
>800,000 Germans were sent to refugee camps in Danzig and the German Reich.
Inb4 it becomes 6 million.
This proves the germans and german jews think alike. They started the same but opposite propaganda.
