Hermann Goering's Suicide

Post by Alpini Arditi » 16 Feb 2022 18:39

Just like to know what the theories are about this. A popular one is that an American officer smuggled a cyanide capsule in to him. Or, it could have been his wife. Obviously, he must have received the pill from somewhere, but where?

Agreed, but here is a link on a thread in this forum regarding the death of Göring and how he got the poison/cyanide capsule..

My recollection is that Göring asked the American guard who had treated him in a friendly fashion to bring pieces of his luggage stored on the prison grounds to his cell, knowing that he had hidden a cyanide capsule among his possessions...and hoping that that capsule had not been discovered when he had been taken prisoner. The rest is history.

So, no indication that the Antarctic UFO Forces helped in this?

Does anyone have more info on that?
I thought the Nazis were anti Masonic

Well, as far as I can see, Forum member Ziv just stated that in 2007 without providing any further info...

Sorry about that everyone.
It seems that Ziv made the statement and left the forum never to be heard of again.
His last Hurrah.
I suppose I should have looked into it a little more

Sorry, Alpini, but that story sounds very hokey to me. It sounds like the prison guard created a "CYA" story which couldn't be checked, in order to avoid personal punishment. My posting above sounds like it's closer to the truth of this matter.
