Another great very interesting video. My Great Uncle was a paratrooper who died in WWII, I once showed my Grandmother, my Uncles sister,a photo of some of Hitler's silver that a saw in a museum. She started crying as she declared she never wants to see that again. She never got over her brothers death, rightfully so. The impact even a piece of silver from Hitler is so great. Thanks for showing
Just another amazing poroduction. And now we get the bonus of Erik' s knowledge. I find those color films of those monsters chilling. Just sitting around and having tea while the world was on fire. Unthinkable God bless those men who fought that evil.
My father in law was stationed outside of Munich at the end of the war and the Berghoff and Eagle's Nest were one of the favorite places for a GI to go when they had leave. Unfortunately the "good stuff" was long gone. Not that he didn't do his fair share of prowling around and may have brought back some more utilitarian items. 😉 The silver Eric puts up for sale doesn't last long and has a hefty price tag. Just goes to show there are still plenty of collectors out there.
Very interesting.. still don't think hitler committed suicide. I think he escaped to another country and lived out his life being protected by Germans. My father served in the army during world war two in the calvary.
You should check out the Berman Museum in Anniston, Alabama (of all places), which also contains a Hitler tea service. The museum is from the personal collection of a spy named Farley Berman who served in the OSS. He was sent to North Africa to locate a member of the French Resistance named Germaine. She, also a spy, was spying on him, too. They fell in love, married, and collected everything imaginable. It's really one of the coolest museums I've ever visited.
Thanks! Being able to collaborate with Erik to show people this stuff has been an absolute pleasure. We've got a lot more on the way. Be sure to check out the website for the museum as well!
If I had never heard of Adolf Hitler before, by just watching the few snippets of what you have shown, I would say that Hitler was quite vain, arrogant, and had many serving him because he didn't want to have his "hands dirty " so to speak. Love all the items that are featured from Erik's museum. I wish I could go see it, that looks like quite the treasure trove! Keep up the awesome work, and stay safe out there!
Thank you JD and Eric for the great episode. The Gettysburg Museum is now on the to do list, I’ll just have to hang in there for my kids to be a little older so they can appreciate it as well. Great job fellas.
We need to go back to Gettysburg for so many reasons, but his museum....wow! Amazing treasures that he has collected and continues. He obviously has the trust of many families. He is a treasure!
Those spoils of war are intriguing. My Dad fought against the Japanese side and told me stories of him and his friends sneaking home items. He had a Japanese sword which he said he had stuffed down his back. He told me it was frowned upon bringing items back, but most of the time those in charge would look the other way.
My father-in-law fought with the RCAF in the India/Burma theatre. He had accumulated a number of souvenirs, although I don't believe that any were actual Japanese military items - he was flying. Unfortunately, his trunk was burgled at some point on the voyage home and all of the really valuable items stolen.
J.D., really great episode of the new series. Keep up the good work. I highly recommend a visit to Eric’s museum in Gettysburg to all of your subscribers. When I visited a month or so ago, Eric was very gracious and very patient with questions about his extensive artifact collection. I also recommend Eric’s book “Hang Tough” about Dick Winter’s experiences with the 506th. Great book!
The families of the 506 probably still have a few hidden gems in their attics, Well deserved imo. My cousin (Army Maj) spent several tours in Iraq early on. The pictures she has of the palaces are insane. Things made of gold that you would never expect (toilets and such) Tyrants have interesting ways of hiding money. Incredible vid, JD!
When I saw this title and watched the video, it reminded me of a article I read in the paper. Back in the mid 80s, I saw a picture on the front of the TNT (Tacoma News Tribune). It was of an older gentleman holding a Champagne glass, with the Reichs Eagle and monogram AH. The article stated the he was with the 101st A/B, and he had acquired the glasses while in the house of Adolf Hitler. He kept them on a self, in his machine shop in Tacoma. He would bring them off the shelf, and dust them off to celebrate when he made a big business deal. He said that over the years, some had broken, and he only had a few left. Who knows what has happened to them over the last 40 years?
This is truly fascinating. I got to get to this museum. I'm in NJ, 3 hours away. A trip is in my future. I would love to meet Erik as well and pick his brain. Thanks for sharing JD. Incredible video as always.
Hey JD, have you heard of the Dobbin House Tavern during your trips to Gettysburg? If not, highly recommend! It’s my favorite restaurant anywhere, by far.
JD Another amazing video just absolutely enjoyed it and I can’t wait for the Normandy series to start I am so excited for it and greetings from England 🏴🏴
Pretty darn cool that some of this stuff still exists. To find that stuff with all the initials on it. Still doesn’t amount to as many as Pat Pend has his name on.
Thanks for sharing this video with all of us. WOW he is an avid collector. I truly appreciate the time, effort, and I’m sure it was a huge financial investment to collect this many pieces of our history. Also, I’ve never seen an asparagus server before? 🤔 Fascinating! 😃 What an awesome piece of history, even though it’s a little dark it’s still an interesting piece of our history. I for one find the Silver Set particularly interesting. The Flatware shows that they must of been treated and served like ROYALTY! 😮 I can’t help but make the connection of them living the high life eating off of pure silver then be reminded of there dramatic ending. 😱 I’m pretty sure Ava B and Hitlers final moments were living in a crappy bunker under ground. Ava B killed herself with Hitler I’m pretty sure. I’m not sure of all of the historical accounts of there suicides. But I think the ingested cyanide.
On top of that, admission to the museum is completely free. Donations and sales from the website allow him to keep the place open free of charge, which is really awesome.
@@TheHistoryUnderground Ah, a sawbuck is shaped like an X and used for cutting logs on. X is Roman numerals for 10. A double sawbuck is XX, Roman numerals for twenty. Has to be a unique Canadian slang thing I expect.
Love your videos, if you ever make it to northern Illinois let me know a lot of places of historic things such as John Deere's place , Blackhawk war battle sites, Grants home, old ghost towns.
Really enjoyed this; must buy the big book by Griffeth. A neighbor sixty years ago brought back everything you could imagine and had a fabulous house museum.
In the mid 80s in my early early 20s I worked in a militaria collectible shop back home. A lot of rare items came through our shop. One of hitlers cutlery sets was brought in by the soldier who nabbed it from berchtesgaden. It was a set in a leather bound case. Monogrammed with the AH and these were gold. Probably plated not solid. I have no idea who the soldier was that brought them in or if he was easy co but back then no one knew anything of easy co. I was fortunate enough to see and handle one of herman gorings baby blue hats. One of kaiser Wilhelm broom handled mauser. Some of himmlers uniform insignia and I could go on and on. I met a lot of german soldiers. Even a survivor of stalingrad. It was an interesting time for me back then. Lots of stories from vets on both sides. Even a japanese kamikaze survivor. He settled in so cal and became a very wealthy man. He was well known and always had autographed pictures he would give people.
I thought how dumb and pretentious until I thought back to my asparagus rolling all over the place serving it. Might be in the market now..for one I can afford. Lol
HEY, JD Well I think that this kind of memorabilia is awesome Not because of being from Germany's third right or Hitler but because of the the war history of the man who did the fighting In world war II and the men who sacrificed their lives for our freedom so this memorabilia means more than just sorts and knives but the history of the war well OK take care stay safe God bless and will see you on the next project
Growing up my mom worked in home health, one of her patients had some of ceramic plates that supposedly belonged to Hitler, that he brought back from the eagles nest. For whatever reason he decided to gift a couple of them to her and they hung in our kitchen for years. No way to tell if he actually used them but I remember them having his initials on them and I think some sort of scribble. Don’t remember what happened to them after that.
Do you know if most of this was brought back on the GI's person or was it shipped back? My grandfather was a Sergeant Major and shipped a bunch of stuff back home but when it was opened in the USA, it had been replaced with other stuff. Just curious how those guys got their stuff back.
My Dad was one of the M P's That escorted these jokers to the Gallows after sentencing. He and a doctor. To make sure they were dead. Right on Dad. Love you!
I know that people who are history buffs probably know this but it was Easy Company or Company E 506th PIR of the 101st Airborne Division that, ahem, "liberated" the silverware and lots of other of Hitler's booty. The same outfit chronicled in Band of Brothers.
There's one puzzle piece that I'm waiting on right now that will determine when the trip will be. Looking at either late March/early April or mid-June. Hope to have a solid answer sooner rather than later.
Have you ever visited the battlefield at Bentonville North Carolina? I don't think I've really seen you guys or the battlefield Trust really do a broken-down version of the battle. Battlefield trust kind of did a prolonged video but that was pretty much it
I appreciate your videos so much. Amazing to see these silver pieces from the Third Reich. So much insight and knowledge about these items delivered. Thank you.
The EB set would not have been taken from the bunker in Obersalzberg. The bunker had been stripped by local before the Yanks/French got there. Much more likely it was "obtained" from a local who had taken it themselves.
My father was in the 1269th combat engineers B group . My dad participated in missions with Boris Pasch. He was part of a secret group called T force which was was an advance Group proceeding ahead of regular army going into town's trying to get information get information on the camp's for wartime prosecutions . I have been trying to contact JD Huitt. Dad was in the 1st troop transport into Munich, And he was one of the 1st troops into Dachau. I'm trying to contact Mr. JD huitt. I have some insights he may be interested in
Good thing I don’t own that shaker... I would be that guy making dead nazis with it! I love how the Germans over engineer, who needs tongs when you can have a fancy asparagus grabber! Thanks as always JD and Erik 🍻
Historians conveniently forget that the Young Turk, Talaat Pasha, oversaw the century old Armenian Genocide, Assyrian Genocide (Sayfo), and Greek Genocide. It was done to eliminate Ottoman Christians. Talaat Pasha, among the most evil.
@@TheHistoryUnderground I subscribed to "The History Underground" and I very much enjoy your fine Civil War Landmark Tours at You Tube. I have long been interested in the American Civil War, even before Ken Burns did his PBS CW Documentary.
I once was contrated to move all of the antiques of a local antique dealer from his shop and warehouse in Weston, Missouri to Excelsior Springs, Missouri. He had a few silver teacups and other pieces from a tea set he claimed was owned by Hitler. He seemed pleased to have them and had them in his apartment. He gave me a creamer to look at and told me to upend it to see te base. There it appeared to be a double stamp of the swastika to appear eight legged. That he claimed was to prove positive it was legit. I had no idea if he was correct and often wondered it's authenticity. I ask you for the reason you are an expert and I want to know if my suspicions were right.
JD.... In your vast knowledge of history and your knowledge of the facts do you believe that Hitler committed suicide or do you believe that he could have escaped to South America as many believe?
In another video he talked about that. His museum has a piece of the sofa from Hitler's bunker that is blood stained. They got a DNA analysis of it and confirmed it is Hitler's blood. So...no South America.
I don't think the initials tell anything about Hitler. In most western and Northern European countries it was very common to have your initials on silver, table and bedlinnen. I got my own baby silvered tableset with my initials as a birth present from my grandparents. And my family was lower middle class.
Good episode, very detailed. But if you can invest in two more camera people. Focusing and moving around is distracting and after a while, sorry, annoying. Or just make more cuts and edit together later. Just a suggestion not meant to be mean. Keep up the good work.

love it - a bit more 🥰🥰
Very cool video.
Thanks!
I have a few bits myself.
Nice!
@@TheHistoryUnderground thanks! Super channel especially the WW2 stuff but the American Civil War videos were amazing as well.
AH
To think he actually used those
Does anyone know where Hitler’s silverware that Duck Winters brought home is today?
Was any of these items made by the silver taken away from the victims?
I'm curious about this too...
Victims?
All of this "Hitler silver" makes me wonder what was melted down to make it all.
Good question.
@@TheHistoryUnderground Thanks JD. I have them occasionally :)
I'm guessing Silver ore...
You would NOT find this at the Eagles Nest.
I don't think the initials tell anything about Hitler. In most western and Northern European countries it was very common to have your initials on silver, table and bedlinnen. I got my own baby silvered tableset with my initials as a birth present from my grandparents. And my family was lower middle class.
Just kidding, thanks for the history lesson.
Why the fuck would Eva Braun needed her own set of flatware?
Just curious is your museum haunted??
Nope.
🤔
Good episode, very detailed. But if you can invest in two more camera people. Focusing and moving around is distracting and after a while, sorry, annoying. Or just make more cuts and edit together later. Just a suggestion not meant to be mean. Keep up the good work.
how the fuck did he pronounce joachim ribentoff jochabann rippentoff?
