    You do realize that was not during the war. He did not wear his swaztika arm band during the war. Likely an accident.

    In fact its around 1934 as the new SS skull is on the guy's cap, but not the 1936 eagle. Perhaps late 1933 as Hitler is also still wearing his party belt buckle rather than the Sam Brownie style he wore from 34 onwards

    I've seen this shot before and I'm wracking my brains trying to work out where. Benny picked it BTW

    Nice work Benny. It's funny how you get better at picking up the nuances after a while isn't it?

    Very good Benny:

    I also noted the date, but try to match the
    quote of what Hitler said, to match the
    photo. Also the quote was April 18,1945.

    Noted the year and accident site of this unidentified German city 1933-1934.

    Benny:

    Swastika not Swaztika

    Bill, FYI, we updated the caption from "circa 1944" to "1934-1934" based on Benny and Bishop's observations.
