Tiger crewman likely inspecting the damage caused by a non-penetrating round impact, seen just below the hatch lid. It must have done something, as there appears to be a latch laying on the turret roof.

dolf Hitler chats with his heroes from Luftwaffe after award ceremony at Berghof, Obersalzberg, on 4 April 1944.
After the Wolfsschanze, its headquarters in East Prussia, the Berghof was the place where Hitler spent the most time during the war. He became the owner of the residence in 1933 thanks to being enriched with his book ''Mein Kampf''.
The British Lancasters bombed Obersalzberg on April 25, 1945. The Berghof was partially destroyed during this raid. On May 4, four days after Hitler's suicide and before the advance of Allied troops in the region, the SS set fire to the villa. A few hours later, the 3rd American Infantry Division arrived in Berchtesgaden with a unit from the 2nd French Armored Division. The Americans only invested in the town of Berchtesgaden, the French took advantage of it to start the assault on Obersalzberg where the Berghof is located. In their Jeep, Captain Laurent Touyeras and his driver, Brigadier François Borg, passed the natives of the 2nd DB who were struggling to climb the slope. They were thus the first Allied soldiers to reach the still consumed chalet. The French discovered there kilometers of underground bunkers sheltering works of art looted all over Europe, but also thousands of bottles of vintage wines, tons of food and more unusual pieces, such as a collection of bras collected by Göring.
The final destruction of the building did not take place until 1952, when the German federal government had it blown up in order to avoid any pilgrimage of nostalgics of the Third Reich.
The site was reforested and now houses a documentation center on the history of National Socialism, as well as a golf course and a hotel.

Insidious German soldiers interrogate kitten to extract information on enemy troop movements.

German POW (Prisoner Of War) officers line up after the surrender, May 1945.
Most German officers of lower to medium rank were allowed to go home after a short period of processing. Anyone from the rank of colonel and above, however, was within the jurisdiction of Allied military intelligence and senior Allied commanders. Officers of General rank experienced significantly lengthier periods of processing and interrogation.
At the end of the war, high Nazi dignitaries like Heinrich Himmler tried to escape. The latter had shaved his mustache and tried to change his appearance in order to pass for a soldier in the influx of prisoners. He was finally unmasked and arrested. It is alleged he committed suicide by swallowing a cyanide capsule when he was assessed by an Allies doctor but most likely he was murdered by his Jewish interrogator's.
Josef Mengele, the terrible doctor at Auschwitz, had a completely different destiny. At the end of the conflicts he managed to escape from Europe and reach South America where he will die, dead drowned on a beach at the age of 67 also probably murdered.

Hi W that is the caption that came with the photo. I do not know the reality of the situation so if you can tell me then I will edit this.

Josef was NOT a “terrible” Doctor. On the contrary all the child twins associated with him who were interviewed in the 1960s related how kind he was to them and how he became a father-figure to them. Jewish Wikipedia editors who police the page on him would not allow this information to be included and kept deleting it.
This is an example of how the ‘holocaust’ mythology is perpetuated: viz. by spreading misinformation and suppressing, criminalising and censoring critical analysis of it.

CONCLUSION:
Best not to just repeat ahistoric captions indiscriminately.
We only have to think a bit.
E.g.
Q. What is the likelihood that a.) Herman Göring amassed a collection of women's brassieres and b.) was allowed to store it beneath Adolf’s house in Obersazlburg?
A. Likelhood for both is ZERO.

Q. What is the likelihood that fifteen top administrators (who had been called to a conference during a war that had become an existentialist ‘total war’ for survival) would hear the announcement of a plan to arrest and mass-murder the equivalent of the combined populations of Finland and Norway without a murmur of disapproval or incredulity?
A. The liklihood is ZERO.

I know Josef was not a terrible doctor. I am more interested in the pics than the captions. As I have used the images from a history site, I will use their captions and people can discuss them. As they are facebook I have not linked to them. They are not my thoughts but other peoples who have a right to say what they do. We can respond accordingly. Thanks for the input W.
