:And the Doentiz incident is revealing of several factors, primarily Hitler's delusion and lunacy at the very end, feeling betrayed by Goering (Luftwaffee) Himmler (SS) and the the Wehrmacht who trid to kill him in 1944. Hitler's thinking was the Kriegmarine was the only fighting force left,and he wanted them to continue the fight, despite not being around to lead them. And the only reason the Kriegmarine was available is because the U-boats were moreless bottle-up in harbor cause anti-submarine warfare was so effective.

::To show his delusion, I personally like his statement about the proven racial supperiority of the people of the East better. He really believed this stuff. And his ideas about the miracle weapon, could also be discussed, to show that he lost his grip on reality. But that should be done before he dies. We could describe that he was sitting in his bunker, delusional and deserted, making grandiose plans for the time after the final victory. And then he comitted suicide.
