Bormann, Martin, born 17-06-1900, in Halberstadt,
Father Theodor Bormann was a trumpet player in a regiment and then a clerk in a post office. Martin later claimed that he was an “inspector of the postal service”. When Martin was three years old, his father died. His mother, Louise Gröbler, remarried her brother-in-law, Alfred Bormann, a bank manager. He had two half-siblings, Else and Walter Bormann, from his father’s earlier marriage to Louise Grobler, who died in 1898. Antonie Bormann gave birth to three sons, one of whom died in infancy. Martin (born 1900) and Albert
(born 1902) the later SS Gruppenführer and adjutant to Adolf Hitler survived to adulthood. Martin who had a Lutheran education and a bad relation with his father, dropped out of college and worked on a farm before volunteering in the German Army during the last few months of the First World War, but was not permitted, because of his young age and length. Later he joined the 55th Feldartillerie Regiment as a Mil Gunner, but never saw action.

Missing from the plethora of offspring is Ehrengard-Eicke’s twin sister-who died shortly after birth.
After the war he joined the Rossbach Freikorps, where he fought with Rudolf Höss.

Bormann was found guilty with Höss of murdering Walter Kadow, who had been accused of betraying saboteur Albert Leo Schlageter. However, he only spent a year in prison. Bormann saw Hitler for the first time in July 1926 during a manifestation of the then forbidden NSDAP and was inmiddiately impressed by him and joined the National Socialist German Workers Party on 19-02-1927, age 27, his number 60508. On 02-09-1929, Bormann married 19-year-old Gerda Buch,
whose father, Major Walter Buch,

Without any obvious talents Bormann rose steadily in the Nazi hierarchy. In May 1941, the flight of Hess to Britain cleared the way for Bormann to become Head of the Party Chancellery that same month, age 40. Bormann proved to be a master of intricate political infighting. He also had a lover, the actress Manja Behrens,










Else Mary Margarethe Krüger, born on 09-02-1915 in Hamburg-Altona, was Martin Bormann’s secretary (and, allegedly, mistress)
during World War II. She was in the Führerbunker during the Battle of Berlin. Krüger was with Eva Braun, Gerda Christian, Traudl Junge






Some historians have suggested Bormann held so much power that, in some respects by 1945, he became Germany’s “secret leader” during the war. Bormann was invariably the advocate of extremely harsh, radical measures when it came to the treatment of Jews, of the conquered eastern peoples or prisoners of war. He signed the decree of 09-10-1942 prescribing that “the permanent elimination of the Jews (see Anne Frank)
from the territories of Greater Germany can no longer be carried out by emigration but by the use of ruthless force in the special camps of the East.” A further decree, signed by Bormann on 01-07-1943, gave SS Obersturmbannführer, Adolf Eichmann, he was hanged in Israel, age 56, on 31-03-1962,
absolute powers over Jews, (see Simon Wiesenthal)
who now came under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Gestapo.

and others followed the lead tanks as far as the Ziegelstrasse. There a panzerfaust struck the lead tank. The violent explosion stunned Bormann and Stumpfegger, and wounded Axmann. All retreated to the Weidendammer Bridge. Now it was every man for himself. Bormann, Stumpfegger, Axmann, and others followed the tracks of surface railway to the Lehrter station. There Bormann and Stumpfegger decided to follow the Invalidestrasse east. Axmann elected to go west, but encountered a Russian patrol and returned on the path Bormann and Stumpfegger had taken. He soon found them. Behind the bridge, where the Invalidestrasse crosses the railroad tracks, they lay on their backs, the moonlight on their faces. Both were dead. Axmann could see no signs of an explosion, and assumed that they had been shot in the back. He continued on his way, escaping from Berlin and spending the next six months hiding out with the Hitler Youth in the Bavarian Alps, where he was eventually captured. On 07-12-1972 when construction workers uncovered human remains, pointed out by the man who buried the two bodies on 08-05-1945, Albert Krummnow, a post office official, see position 2 on the photo below, position 1 was the suspected spot which was a mistake as Krumnow could tell. The identity papers discovered on one of the bodies identified it as Stumpfegger. The dental work and a healed broken collar bone was strong evidence that the second body was Bormann. Fragments of glass found in the two men’s jawbones led to the conclusion that they committed suicide via cyanide capsules on 02-05-1945. The sightings proved to be flights of fantasy that Bormann had flew to Argentina.

Very good. Except for the “Martin Bormann Theory”… It is difficult to explain away that the “Bormann skull bones” which is well documented were covered by South American (Paraguayan) red clay… How on earth could that be? Your theory, thus, has to be false, IMO.
You don´t mention any of the photos of Bormann, we have at least 2 from Bolivia, one of the 50s, one of the 60s. Not “worth” mentioning, these claims? Furthermore, Belgian former pro-Nazi organizer, Paul van Aerschodt, who we know lived in La Paz Bolivia running a restaurant for years, says he met Bormann 4 times, as ´Augustin von Lembach´ ( a catholic priest). Why would van Aerschodt claim this? He was well into Nazi Circles in Bolivia, and also met with Klaus Barbie (´Altmann´) several times in La Paz. Ever seen the 2 Bormann photograhs?
And what about the documents? Government fakes? It has been proven that one of Bormann´s around 10 aliases was also Eliezer Goldstein, with which he (disguised as a priest) entered Argentina in 1948. Are you suggesting that the Argentinian Gov. document is a forgery? … You do not mention, either, the name Eliana Keller, Chilean. She has testified she was adopted as a toddler by Bormann – and has been thoroughly interviewed and filmed.
Another quite credible leads are in Paraguay… Ant not only from the Paraguayan reddish clay of province Itó…
My alternative theory is – of course – extreme. But that was exactly what the classical Nazis were:
Martin Bormann´s oldest daughter Ilse (´Eike´), b. 9.7.1931 – is nowhere to be located as to place of death, burial… Our sources claim that of Bormann´s 9 children surviving WW2, ´Eike´was the only one that he had transferred over to South America. Allegedly, she died in 1958 – aged only 26 yrs. The Berlin Nazis were extreme famatics, and on several occasions they managed to fake deaths, burials… And so, the best option that I can see is that Bormann also “played in”. He was a billionaire in the south… The time span 1958-72 fits perfectly in for a skull; an exhumation. And he may have had a duplicate of his set of teeth made to be attached to his oldest daughter´s cranium… Bizarre as it sounds, of course, but to me, we know Bormann was alive as late as 1973-74 (in Buenos Aires). Why German forensic pathologists failed to distinguish a female´s skull bone structures from a male´s (they said it resembled Bormanns son´s) – I wouldn´t have a clue. But they did. And the DNA follow-up… the techniques of those periods neither 1972 or 1998 – do not match today´s methods qualities.
Spanish Nazi agent Angel de Velasco – to me, a credible eyewitness says he helped Bormann out of Europe… This he said almost 30 yrs after WW2. Why on earth would he – and it was decades later, when everyone of the older were gone. He was well retired by then.
Martin Bormann, he says, died in 1978.
The above mentioned arguments – none worth mentioning for you? Governmental documents – and some even with the photograph of Martin Bormann in Argentina, Paraguay – intentional frauds? How on earth could that be? Several have testified as to their authenticity.
We know that both Artur Axmann, Erich Kempka and others – lied. We know that most likely Heinz Linge – lied. They were extreme fanatics. And in the final months they were dreaming of establishing a Fourth Reich down south…
Martin Bormann was quite lucky to escape Berlin, that is correct… But everything is pointing way away from your “official” narrative.
Thank you.
