Ahh, now I SEE why I have a hard time understanding what you are writing about in your posts....English is your SECOND language....That explains it!!!! Yes, it was one of Hitler's silliest ideas, letting Hermann try to finish off the BEF, and it ranks up there with starting the war, and deciding to follow Napoleon's footsteps.... Funny you should mention the Imperial War Museum visit. I had and lost a chance to go to the LSU summer school in England in 1990. My GPA was only .002 points below the cut-off and I didn't make the list. Too many toga parties during my second and third sohpomore years I guess. That'll do it every time! I'll get there one day.
Comes to something replying to own posts.... Four and a half years of struggle against lies, stupidity and cowardice.....A real mouthfull. We can thank Max Amman yep youve heared of him before....for the name change.. Also interesting as A58 says...dictated to Hess, but the blood purge of June 1934 saw off one Father Bernhard Stempfle....one of the books editors...who apparntly had a mouth too large for Hitler to leave open for other reasons. I'm picking up the tickets tomorrow...I travel to Munich next week...Eine grossen pills bitte....danke...choos..
Then again. A58 if you ever make it to this side, me and wtid will take you to the Bristol Bier Keller....nearly as good.
So, since this is a "what were Hitler's ideas" thread, does that mean that bierfest was one of Hitler's ideas? Dusky needs to know.... And thanks for the invite. Might have to do that one day. It'll be on the "bucket list", or rather, "what I'm gonna do after I retire" list.
Nope, dont think Hitler had a hand in inventing beer...He may have...depends what brand were talking about.. But he did frequent many solubrious places....Maybe this points to the future...was Hitler an alcoholic in his early days?? I'm joking....no dont... no 6 pages tellng me he was a vegetarian...Which is ok though...as he did still quite like liver apparantly..according to his cook at one time. But his first entanglement with his future party....small run down inn...at the back of....bet he had a stein or two on the way thru... The Beer hall putch....if your going to shoot into the ceiling its my view you would need to have had the odd borning apple drink...to settle the nerves.... Seems the orginisation was formed and developed in many a bier keller... Booze....was it Hitlers downfall...I'll be releasing it in all good bookshops from next year.
