    I have read a supposed copy of his autopsy somewhere. Even if the autopsy was fake, it really isnt a surprise that he died of sepsis and blood poisoning. Consider where the injuries were supposedly located. He wasn't given antibiotics nor sulfa medications. There would likely have been perforations to either the small or large intestines.
    Even in modern times, that is a serious injury. Running the bowel, you can't find all the wounds by eyesight alone.
    Horsehair was commonly used to stuff seats in chairs, cars, etc. Horsehair can be sharp and could have easily made punctures in a blast.
    He started running a fever and fell ill the day or night before he died, if I remember from Dr Gerwarth book.

    Hitler seethed that Heydrich insisted on being driven around Prague in an open car without bodyguards. Hitler considered it reckless. Hitler was further pissed at Himmler for not stopping Heydrich from doing this. Hitler considered Heydrich’s death a needless, preventable sacrifice of one of his most important officials and held Himmler partially responsible.

      depends on the coffin used and if the body was embalmed. There are pelnty of old graves dug up with the bodies inside still in relativly good conditions. There is one in sweden i know of with a atleast 300 year old mumy in it, that never were embalmed, and it still have it's funeral cloths on. So if it was a good and well made coffin the body and it's cloths could werry mutch be in good condition.
      But as far as I care. Love em or hate them for what they did in life, but let the dead rest. You can't make the dead regret their actions in life, and anything you do to their graves tells us more about you as a person than about the dead.

      It seems that three of Heydrich's four children are still alive (one of them died in 1943 aged 10). His youngest daughter was born just after her father's death and is now 82.
      I supposed it comes down to how old the grandchildren are and when they were born. They must be well into middle age by this point and I'm not sure someone that old would still be in active service unless they were a senior officer.
      Heydrich's wife died in August 1985 aged 74.

The speculation was whether anyone had sabatoged his recovery. There is very little genuine good will among Sociopathic cut throats. Heydrich was an intelligent man. So much so, that the Allies targeted him for elimination because if anything happened to Hitler they feared that Heydrich could ascend to top leadership in Germany. Allied Intelligence had pegged most of the top N@zi leadership as dim-witted. After the disastrous debacle of Stalingrad they fiqured that it was better to leave them in place because they proved themselves to be fundamentally incompetent, militarily. Heydrich would have eliminated Himmler if an opportunity presented itself and I'm sure Himmler knew that. He may have seen this assassination attempt as a pretense to beat Heydrich to the punch. To do that he would have to be in Heydrich's hospital room alone with him.

    Yep the sword would be worth a mint even more if Himmler did swap his with Heydrich, even Muller’s would be worth some decent amount too. Thing is the Germans had the best “souvenirs’ daggers, medals swords etc compared to the allies who where kind of boring in that regard. I’m no sympathiser but I had a modest collection of Nazi stuff at one time and I was always getting pestered to part with some of it so I’m guessing it’s still highly sort after today Heydrichs sword if ever sold on the black market would set someone up quite nicely so worth the risk of stealing it. Anyway you be the judge.

    • @TheUntoldPast
      @TheUntoldPast  2 місяці тому +3

      I do think the suggestion about it being Muller is an interesting look, especially with the seniority of Himmler over both of the men. Thanks for your comment mate, some very interesting points. The sword I'd guess would be worth hundreds of thousands, however if discovered I have no idea how they'd sell it based on where they got it from. (The grave)

    Can we even be sure that it is the body of Heydrich that is now interred in the grave?

It just seems possible in light of the times. Im just wondering "what if".

    It’s public record the coffin was undisturbed & no items were taken. The question being do governments or authorities tell lies, that’s up to you to decide. It’s nearly certain his original sword was never buried with him though…
    It is precisely in the Nazi prescriptions that the duties of the SS men in engagement, marriage, and funeral are recorded. Chvanchara reminds that in the event that a member of the SS is buried, his closest superior takes the honorary sword of the deceased from the coffin lid and places his own on it. This kordík is then buried with the coffin.

  • @DT-ge8gd

    If the grave was actually dug up, and as you call it... "disturbed". I find it very hard to believe that nothing was taken !! Why would anyone go through all that effort, to dig out 6 feet of earth, to just look at pretty much nothing but dirt and whatever else was placed in the coffin? The only thing left would be metallic objects. His body, bones clothes everything would have looooong rotted away. So the only thing you would see are the sword...(if there), and medals, cleats, pins etc... so why not take them... nothing makes sense... the only possibility is that when they dug down to where he was... there was nothing there. No sword, medals, nothing.

    I highly doubt his sword was buried with him. I have been in collectible militaria since the 70s and can say I actually bought an SS officers sword from his German wife in Syracuse, NY in that era. She had married an American GI like in 47 and had his sword in the bag since his loss in 1944. I would bet one of the kids still has it or knows, if not grand kids. Bill McClure dated Heydrich's daughter for a time hoping to get some stuff, but all he got was time dating her. It's still in that family, someplace incredibly secure, an attic or basement wrapped as if an old umbrella or such.
