In The Bunker With Hitler
The last survivor of the end days of Hitlers bunker tells his story publicly for the first time. Von Loringhoven was aide-de-camp to Hitlers last two chiefs of staff Guderian and Krebs and the link between the armies at the fronts and Hitler in his Berlin bunker. For the last nine months of the Third Reich he was present at the daily military briefings between Hitler and Marshals Keital and Goring General Jodl and Admiral Donitz along with Goebbels Bormann Ribbentrop Himmler and Fegelein. Von Lorninghoven was witness to the ever-growing gap between the reality of reports outside the bunker and Hitlers misunderstanding of the calamity that was encircling the regime.

He was released in January 1948.
