Chapter 41:
September 2, 1939
Wewelsburg Castle, SS Training Facility, Hanover, 11th Military District, Western Germany Wewelsburg, a Renaissance-style castle purchased by Himmler and used as an SS training facility.
Generaloberst Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, leading the attack on the SS-only location, was issuing kill orders without hesitation.
"Kill the traitorous SS bastards!"
"The rebel bastards are slandering us! The Führer will never forgive this!"
To the New Government, especially the conservative generals with monarchist leanings, the SS were no longer Germans, but simply the enemy.
"Hitler is dead!"
"Nonsense! The Führer is alive!"
Taking cover behind obstacles, the New Government forces and the SS continued to trade fire, cursing each other fervently.
