I was in Hitler’s suicide bunker

Rochus Misch, now 92, recollects that he was in Adolf Hitler’s bunker when the German dictator committed suicide.

“Then Bormann ordered Hitler’s door to be opened. I saw Hitler slumped with his head on the table. Eva Braun was lying on the sofa, with her head towards him. Her knees were drawn tightly up to her chest. She was wearing a dark blue dress with white frills. I will never forget it.
