953 nut 54,844 #1 Posted April 30, 2016 4-30-1945 Adolf Hitler commits suicide On this day in 1945, holed up in a bunker under his headquarters in Berlin, Adolf Hitler commits suicide by swallowing a cyanide capsule and shooting himself in the head. Soon after, Germany unconditionally surrendered to the Allied forces, ending Hitler’s dreams of a “1,000-year” Reich. Also on this date in 1945, 953 nut (Richard D. Schmidt) was born in Syracuse, NY. I don’t know of any direct cause and effect relationship between my birth and Hitler’s suicide; but who knows. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
