Hitler DNA testing

[Wetzelrad]

Barnes Review posted a different angle on this story. A Bill Panagopulos, who helped auction off the piece of couch, claimed that it was taken by Colonel Rosengren "a few days after Hitler committed suicide". This contradicts known histories, as U.S. soldiers were not in Berlin until at least two months later.

The presumed argument against this would be that Panagopulos was just an auctioneer trying to sell something and can not be trusted as an authority. The quotation would carry more weight if it came from Rosengren himself. Undeterred, the writer at Barnes Review continues:

Could Rosengren have taken fabric from Hitler’s couch, even at a later date? The answer is once again no.

The Soviets had exclusive access to the bunker until 7 July 1945. By then, they had removed, documented, and later destroyed most items in the bunker.

The bunker was partially demolished by the Soviets before Americans ever saw it.

What did happen to Hitler’s couch?

It was photographed and examined by Soviet troops on 2–3 May 1945.

Russian archival reports describe removing fabrics, blood-stained coverings, and personal effects.

These materials went into Soviet NKVD custody, not American hands.

If all those facts are accurate, this makes the origin story unlikely, at the very least.
