I wonder what other WWII secrets the governments are keeping from us.
I gess we will find out some more stuff 100 years after the war.
An interesting account and one of many different versions of the same event. Unfortunately none of us know which is correct but they all make good reading. Thank you for posting.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
I Guess that Buggers the MI5 Theory then
Mr. Jones had 43 years to come up with a fancier story than that, so I surmise it must ring true. The MI5 story seemed pretty sexed up. I think people just wanted a much more wicked ending for such a nefarious man. Great article, thank you for posting.

I personally believe that the burial site should be released, its been a very long time, and everyone deserves a proper burial, even mass murders these days get one.
I'm sure his daughter would have loved to have had a burial place to visit.
I hope i dont get flamed for this, but they should release it.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion Brian , many might not agree but to express opnions is why the war generation fought to put down Himmler and the rest !!
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
I am far from convinced about the testimony presented in these diaries.
Himmlers suicide is very well documented together with photos. It did not take place at all like he says. The burial party was also made up of just four of men. See After the Battle Magazine issues no 14 and 17.
After the Battle - Magazines > Issues 1-25
Cheers, Ade.
Thanks for the link Ade, fantastic site! I had never heard of this magazine, what a gold mine of information.
