Nazi Secretary Dead

From the DW:
"Secretary to Nazi propaganda minister Goebbels dies at 106"

Brunhilde Pomsel's death was confirmed by Christian Krönes, the director and producer of a documentary film featuring the centenarian. Krönes said that Pomsel had been coherent when he last spoke to her on her birthday, January 11, and added that she had died in her sleep at her Munich home on January 27. In the documentary "A German Life," Pomsel talks about the years that she spent working for Joseph Goebbels, who was in charge of spreading Adolf Hitler's ideology in newspapers and broadcasts as the Third Reich's official Minister of Propaganda. Pomsel accompanied the propaganda minister for three years - almost up to the point of his death. Goebbels and his wife Magda famously poisoned their six children before committing suicide on May 1, 1945, which Pomsel recalled in an interview in 2011: "I will never forgive Goebbels for what he did to the world or for the fact that he murdered his innocent children," Pomsel said about the events.  In the years preceding her job as Goebbels' secretary Brunhilde Pomsel was employed in the news division of the German government broadcasting corporation for nine years, which required her to join the Nazi party. After the war, she returned to broadcasting, working for national broadcasters in West Germany until reaching retirement. She never married or had children. Pomsel spent most of her life after World War II living in relative obscurity until a German newspaper published an interview with her in 2011. The feature prompted a great deal of interest in one of the last surviving members of the Nazi leadership's inner circle, eventually leading to the production of the documentary on her life.

^ There are "The Greatest Generation" that helped to stop Hitler, the Nazis and the Japanese during World War 2 and then there are "The Worst Generation" that helped Hitler, the Nazis and the Japanese during World War 2. This woman was part of the "The Worst Generation" while others, like my grandfather, were part of the "The Greatest Generation." It's sad when we loose those heroes, but not so when we lose the others. ^
