another interesting WW II book i just 
scored at the library is Joachim Fest's 
biography of Albert Speer, Hitler's 
architect and, towards the end of the
war, overseer of all weapons production

according to The Hidden Hitler book, in his 
rise to political prominence Hitler had to 
give up homoerotic acts. Speer was not 
homosexual in orientation

interestingly Fest and the homosexual 
professional historian author of The 
Hidden Hitler agree that Hitler had 
unrequited erotic feelings towards Speer
