karlunity Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Hanna stayed loyal to the end so far as I know. Women, once they make up their minds, can be more determined than most men. She is one of those. She said the the thing that Germans were most ashamed of was losing. Gotta give her an A for honesty. karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AzRednek Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 She's quite animated. I read in Wikepedia that she never denounced the Nazis. My Grandfather's sister was similar. She remained very anti Semitic and a Nazi sympathizer for her entire life. Some what strange being that their father was a descendant of a Jew. Her and her minister husband moved to Canada during the war and were denied passage to Australia. She claimed herself, her husband and many of her husband's ministry were being followed and as she claimed harassed by the FBI during WW2. From what I was told she never attempted to contact her family that more or less dis-owned her during and after the war. She was one of seven siblings and only wrote one sister an occasional letter. She passed sometime in the mid 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlunity Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 I had read of her before, so this was worth seeing. A remarkable woman. karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
