High Hopes for New SS Memoir

Fritz Darges, the last surviving member of Hitler's inner circle, passed away at the age of 96 on October 24, 2009. Darges' will stipulated that upon his death his memoirs would be published. Since Darges was very close to Hitler, some historians hope his memoirs may contain an eye-witness account to Hitler giving verbal orders for the Final Solution.
