The official story of Hitler's suicide relies on three pieces of forensic evidence: a body that was never found, blood that didn't match his blood type, and dental records that were riddled with contradictions.
In Hitler's Death: A Gallery of Skeptics, Peter David Orr assembles the ultimate jury of experts to examine the crime scene. You will meet Captain George Gabelia, the American intelligence officer who excavated the Chancellery garden and found the earth empty. You will meet Dr. Cyril Wecht, the forensic pathologist who exposed the fatal flaws in the Soviet dental autopsy. And you will meet Lt. Colonel Calvin Behle, the JAG officer who kept the investigation open because his own witnesses tracked a flight out of Berlin.
This isn't a theory about what might have happened. It is a dossier of what didn't happen. The forensic evidence for suicide does not exist-and the men profiled in this book are the ones who proved it.
