The Nazi children

Paddy Hitler, Max Mosley and the dilemma of Nazi children

This is a fascinating summary of what various "Nazi children" went on to do with their lives.

Under the entry for Paddy Hitler, you should follow the link to a story from the Times in December which I had missed. Wikipedia has an entry on him too. His story had until now escaped my attention.

(By the way, the Wikipedia entry notes that there have been a couple of fictional works in which Adolf travels to Liverpool to visit his nephew. What a neat idea for a movie.)

There's a great short story by Brian Aldiss, a sort of interview with the former Furher, which begins by relating the circumstances of his death, and continues:

"Except that I know he is alive and well and living in Ostend under the assumed name (at least I assume it is assumed) of Alfred Bunglevester."
