unusual facts about Martin Bormann



Heinz Lorenz

During the night of 28–29 April, Hitler ordered that three copies of his political testament be hand-delivered to Field Marshal Ferdinand Schörner in Czechoslovakia, Karl Dönitz in Schleswig-Holstein, and Paul Giesler in Tegernsee by Lorenz, Willy Johannmeyer, and Martin Bormann's adjutant SS-Standartenführer Wilhelm Zander, respectively.

Josef Bürckel

On 8 September 1944, in a letter to Martin Bormann (with whom Bürckel didn't get along), Bürckel opined that the lack of combat-ready troops to occupy the defensive line of the Moselle from the boundary of Gau Westmark via the arsenal of Metz-Diedenhofen, south of Saint-Avold (part of the Maginot Line), to Sarralbe made construction of such defensive positions useless.

Richard Donnevert

Donnevert worked in the office of the Deputy Führer until in 1940 when he was sent by Rudolf Hess and Martin Bormann to serve as deputy Gauleiter in the Sudetenland with specific instructions to control his new superior Konrad Henlein.
