  • Summary

  • The Crown Price, My Great-Grandfather Adolf Hitler the Hohenzollern, was nearly fatally wounded with a Machine Gun during trench warfare on the Western Front after being conscripted to the German Army in his twenties.

    He spent most of the next five years in hospital, and was physically impaired for the ret of his life, due to serious wounds to his side and torso.

    He was awarded two combat Iron Cross whist in a recovery hospital for extremely serious wounded military personnel. Then a Medical Discharge Iron Cross, that he displayed to the public on his clothing afterwards as proof he never had to serve in the German military again.

    Kaiser Wilhelm 2 abdicated to him in November 1918 whilst he was in a trauma recovery hospital, based on blatantly incorrect medical advice.
