Did Martin Bormann REALLY escape the bunker to live free in South America?

[andy hughes]

No-one really knows. Rumours say he commited suicide at the bunker, other rumours say he was killed by an anti-tank missile escaping through the Russian lines, and still more rumours say he escaped, via Rome, to South America. The short answer is, no-one is absoultey sure. Borman was pronounced legally dead in 1973 by a German court, but his life after 1945 remains a mystery.

Remains were identified as his in 1972 info http://www.rotten.com/library/bio/nazi/martin-bormann/

Wow I have just finished reading The Odessa File....fiction of course by Frederick Forsyth...if ur interested in that kind of thing u should read the book...facinating....and makes u think twice ...

I'm afraid I must beg to differ with Bernardo. The Israeli security services produced a raft of evidence to both the Brazilian and Argentinian governments (the latter of which sheltered Adolf Eichmann until 1965) that Bormann had been seen and identified there on countless occasions as late as about 1970. No hard evidence, for sure - but this is the government that successfully located, watched, kidnapped, tried and hanged the forenamed Eichmann, so my money is that Bormann was somewhere there with him too.

Where ever he is, I hope he has met his maker & rots in hell!

The significant books say Bormann is dead. Whether or not let me remind you that war criminals of equal violence exist on all sides, the nazis lost and are propaganda targets? Was the bombing of Berlin and Dresden killing enormous numbers of civilian men women and children or the atom bomb on Japan worse than the "holocuast"?? Smudge..you should get a grip mate, Martin Borman, was he worse than say Macarthur who caused the deaths of thousands of Aussies who were actually allies..?In the case of Germany, for all its horrors, the propaganda machine has done a very effective job on us allied children. It took me 50 years to accept that a lot was just garbage. Cheers
