The remains of Rudolph Hess, Adolph Hitler's former deputy, have been exhumed from a grave in the small Bavarian town of Wunsiedal. The town people got tired of the neo-Nazis who tuned the grave site into a shrine.
Few well-known Nazi grave sites remain in Germany. The Red Army disposed of Adolf Hitler's remains after Berlin was captured.
Hess realized the war was failing and parachuted into Scotland into 1941 for a peace mission. He was arrested and spent the remainder of his life in Spandau prison after the war.
Hess had transcribed most of Mein Kampf for Hitler when both were imprisoned after the beer hall putsch,
Hess' headstone, which was also destroyed, contained the epitaph "Ich hab's gewagt" ("I dared"),
Rightardia doesn't know if this refers to his mission to Scotland or his rise to power in the Nazi party. We hope it is the former.
However, a Sun Sentinel article suggests it may be the latter:
To his last breath he never showed a trace of remorse, insisting that Hitler was the greatest son Germany ever produced and that, if he had it to do all over again, he wouldn`t change a thing.
