@.udsz: American Soldiers reading about Hitler’s death in the Newspaper (1945) 📰 Adolf Hitler died by suicide on April 30, 1945. He shot himself in the head while in his bunker in Berlin, as Soviet forces were closing in on the city. Slide 3 shows the iconic photo of The Soviet Red Army capturing the German Reichtag (parliament) building and the capital on May 2, 1945. #fyp
